Weather

Contrasting weather reports. First, this one from upstate New York.

Another storm blew through. Added another 20 inches. Not to worry, my neighbor has a tractor with a front end loader - plows don't work well out here. And any place you can't plow will soon get wind packed to a condensed size. Got the driveway opened for a few hours yesterday, long enough to get the propane truck and the oil truck in - the propane delivery had already tried earlier, but couldn't get up the driveway and the 150 feet of hose was too short. Dan got in both days, though we both noted he had to rest the horse 3 times coming up our hill, and the snow by the barn was up to the buggy wheel hubs. How's it with you flatlanders? ;-)
