Still Wednesday

[ksmith]

I did not expect to use the snow shovel again for another 8-9 months or so.

Rain-snow cusp all day, with a burst of snow as the storm pushed through. Power went off at the day job, so we were allowed to go home. Drove through several inches of schluck. Shoveled it out of the driveway and off the sidewalks. Hung parka in bathroom to dry. Had a beer.

Still a little light snow to come.

Uggg. I thought the same. I put away the snow shovel and my winter coat last week. It was in the 70's for a good span of days a few weeks ago and the general consensus was that winter was over. I was beyond shock this morning when I woke up and found a blanket of the white stuff on the ground and flakes still falling at a good rate. I guess I really shouldn't be surprised, the house being at 7000' near the foot of part of the Rockies and all, but I was. I scared the cat and freaked out the dogs with my screams :)

It slopped up the yard something fierce, which was a shame because things were in pretty decent shape up to that point.
