Today was forecast to be a nasty snowstorm and the forecast came true. When we woke this morning there was a pile of snow on the ground and more falling by the second. I think every school was cancelled (except for Calvin Seminary!). This was supposed to be the last day of school before Christmas vacation, but many teachers planned on it being a snow day already yesterday. So Scott trudged off to school for his one class this morning. When I looked outside again late morning, I noticed many cars stuck on our street. Scott decided he would still try to get home from Calvin in his little blue car and made it all the way to the bottom of our street. He got stuck and had to snowblow his way out. He got the car out and safely in the garage and then proceeded to snowblow his way through the neighborhood. Neighbors were so happy to see him they were offering him water and hot chocolate! He cleared several driveways and sidewalks and then finally made his way back home. He walked in the door after stripping off his snow encrusted clothing in the garage and proclaimed, "That was fun!"

Hey Scott we could have used you out here. Had snow that was iced both before the snow hit and than after some snow fell. So the snow blower was not to good. Sharon's boys came over and they had to break up the ice before they could do the blower. Took about 2 hrs. on our drive way. Happy birthday Kym. rk
Good thing you bought the beast! Matt was out helping the neighbors, too. Glad we didn't have to drive though. Have a great Christmas!
