Rescuing the plow
Depending upon where you live, weather events are celebrated in unique ways. Here the local TV station shows us pictures of peoples’ front doors mirrored by snow. It’s kind of our thing. The current storm is just about over except for the clean up. It was an epic day. The simple stuff like schools being closed. The once in a century things like a by election being postponed. Close to here the snow plow got stuck. Really stuck. They had to send out a large snow blower to free the monster. And we have nothing compared to the people in the next province to us. When someone gets 150 centimetres of snow, life stops temporarily. Apparently visits to the hospital are down. All the trains ran on time but that was easy. We do not do trains anymore. Here, at our house the deck was cleared several times. And with enough snow moved out of the way the car is back in I think it’s normal place. The RV did not have enough traction to go anywhere. We have enough milk on hand to get us through probably the next round of snow. There will be one because storms can last for days. They even closed to local ski centre. Too much of a good thing. As for mail delivery and parcel delivery, we will never know. If they don’t come to your door you probably don’t have anything to worry about. No real traffic on the road outside. Don’t get me wrong.
