Hauling Snow

Deb took this picture and a video of a local excavating business hauling snow out of the school parking lot today. We have 132 inches of snow currently and Feb. is usually a snowy month for Gaylord as well. We should get 50 inches of snow in Feb. And we should get 8 more inches before the first of Feb. It is looking very promising to hit 200 inches of snow in Gaylord by spring. It is kinda exciting to see the five-foot snowbanks along every road bringing back childhood memories of what real winters were like.
Lots of accidents every week in Gaylord but thankfully mostly only fender benders.

Think Positive

We have no choice what the weather does so I try to think positively and just enjoy it. No warmup above 32 degrees in sight for at least two more weeks. The weatherman says 30 mph winds and one below zero for our high temps today. As I shoveled this morning my eyelids froze open four times and I had to move them with my glove to get them working again, haha. Now that is cold. I spit a couple of times and it hit the ground and bounced.

It’s nice to see people down south get to experience a day or two of winter. I’m sure they want to have that feeling we get for several months every winter. (:>)

Have a great Tues. !!
