You’ve got mail? Maybe? No idea, buried in the snow!

You’ve got mail? Maybe? No idea, buried in the snow!

Mailboxes Buried in Snow

Mailboxes

Deb took a few pictures today of our neighbor’s mailboxes buried in the snow or barely peeking out. Above is the best uncovered one but the rest of the photos show them mostly buried! You could hardly even find the mailbox. The mailman cannot be happy about pulling up to them. It isn’t just my few neighbors, all over town people are tired of shoveling out their mailboxes every day. Of course, my driveway is perfectly clean 30 feet on both sides of my driveway. I could not stand a messy driveway. Every time it snows just one inch I am out hand shoveling it. If you keep driving on it you end up with several inches of solid ice. Some of my neighbors are already driving over a 10-inch hump at the end of their driveways because they just keeping driving over it and won’t shovel it.

More snow in the forecast today but it did warm up to 25 degrees and the salt on Main street is turning to some slush. All the rest of the streets are solid ice.

Deb and I went out for lunch and then we headed to the store for Superbowl Goodies. We got cheese and crackers, a couple of our favorite chips, chicken wings, but most of all my once a year treat
is King Crab Legs!!! Not the little ones, but the BIG ones, yummy!! I have been saving pop bottles all year to buy these and I can’t wait. I am almost more excited about the king crab legs than the Superbowl, lol

Waldon Loader

After tonight’s storm we are supposed to get three days with no snow. If that happens, I will fire up the Waldon Loader and stack some snow at our house and two of the neighbors. I love that little loader.

Fisher Plow

I have plowed my driveway now three mornings and it is a lot of fun. So glad I put it back on the road and so glad I am using the plow after not using it for five years. We figure the truck and plow won’t be worth anything when it comes time to sell it so we might as well get some winter use out of it.

Have a great Thurs.
