Snow is here...

We spent most of the day getting ready for the snow. We had to go to Beth's mom to water the plants. We then stopped by the mall to go to the party store and got plates, napkins, and balloons for the super bowl party on Sunday. We then came home and an prepared for the storm. Beth put the wind cape on the snow blower and started it up. It runs great. Then she waxed the shoot and the blades. She put the trash cans in the garage and found all the shovels and salt. We moved the jeep and the truck to the other side of the holly tree to make cleaning the driveway easier. I made sure all the bird feeders were full and found the tarp. We wanted to put the tarp down on the outside step to help remove the snow from the step easier. We will see if it works or if it was a waste of time. Now that everything is ready outside we figure we will only get a little snow. They are still calling for 2 feet in Philly, but I think around here and with the power plant near us, we figure only around 6 to 16 inches. But we will see Sunday morning when it is all over with. We worked on getting the rest of the furniture back in the guest room. It was so nice to have it out of the living room and dining room and hall bathroom. Now it is back to getting rid of stuff. The snow start around 7pm and is coming sown pretty hard. Beth and I are hoping to get in the hot tub tonight but we will see how it is around 9am. I finally broke down and call the doctor today to get an appointment to have my knee looked at. It had really been sore the last few days and seems to be getting worse. So we will see her on Monday, but I know she will send me for x-rays and and MRI and to a specialist before anything is determined. So I figure in about 2 weeks I might know something. today's picture is the group that went to Disney to celebrate Dawn's birthday.
