Snowed In


We have gotten the worst snow storm here since 1979. Yesterday we got 15 inches of snow with winds and drifting. People were stuck on the Interstate for 11 hours. I sure am glad that my husband bought a 4X4 truck this year. My husband is going crazy with the kids home two days in a row. Oh it's so nice to live in Wisconsin!

We were enjoying Spring like weather yesterday. I felt like digging in the garden and planting some tomatoes (wish I had).

Angry Bernard, that's almost cruel!....


...if I wasn't on the way to the pool with the kids I'd have to give you some trouble!

Hang in there TinasMom! My wife Renee's best friend lives in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin and just emailed about the nastiness up there!

Now where's those towels?

I actually miss the snow


Right now on the West Coast we've had wind warnings for 3 days & the winds are so strong at night it's impossible to sleep. The lack of sun doesn't help either. Everybody (myself included) seems to get really moody in this weather.

Maybe I'll move to Texas.

Wow! That would be eutopia for my border collie. She eats snow, jumps in it and just loves the cold weather.
I live right next to a highway and it's actually kind of nice when there is a major snowstorm. Nobody is out on the highway and the air actually doesn't smell like exhaust for a change.
We did have a similar situation here last year when they neglected to close off an interstate highway due to really bad ice and very poor driving conditions. People were also stuck on that highway. Our highway maintenance crews were highly criticized for not reacting quickly. They had people distributing warm beverages and food along the interstate to others waiting in their cars. It was amazing.

It maylook pretty, but it sure isn't fun to drive in. Guess what, more snow, it's snowing right now.
