We knew the snow was coming it was just a matter of when. I was up around 6am and peeked outside. The snow was just starting to come down. By the time Beth got up around 8am it was really snowing, I joined her around 9. We had breakfast and Beth went outside to start round one of snow removal. There was about a couple of inches at that time. The heavy stuff was due to start around noon and did not disappointed. I on the other hand stayed inside to due laundry and make stew for dinner. I figured I might as well take advantage of the heat from the dryer and the stove to warm the house. It was around 23 degrees outside. Beth had worked on the big snow blower last night, but found there was another leak in the gas line close to the pump. So using the big blower was not an option. the snow as so light the she was able to use the leaf blower the first time, but with 4 more inches that was not going to work the second time. I went out to help and was able to use the shovel to remove the snow from the sidewalk and around the cars with ease. Beth used the little blower to clean off the driveway. We know we will have round 3 tomorrow, but at least we have a jump on it. right now it looks like we have about 8 inches and due to get 4 - 5 more before it over. Guess we will see in the morning. we did see that the Eagles game start time was changed to 4:15pm instead of 1pm due to the weather. Boy am I glad we sold out tickets for this game. Today's picture is of Beth cleaning off the deck with the leaf blower. My hero... Of course there will be 10 more inches to move in the morning.
