I can't complain too much because we had a "God send" in the form a young guy with a front loader who works for the nursing home across the street. He finished his work and then came over and cleared our side of the street and took away all of the huge snow piles. He even apologized for accidentally pushing some snow on my sidewalk that I was clearing off with my shovel. He was serious but I told him to forget it and thanked him for clearing the street. He wouldn't take any money. I guess he was a "snow angel".
We got a trace of snow again last night and might get a little tonight but it is supposed to be over tomorrow. The hiking club plans on walking at the mall tomorrow morning (wimps?). I took a little time today and walked along the green way and took some pictures. The green way was cleared off (mostly) but it was hard to get to it because of all the snow piles. We will have the snow piles well into next month even if we get no additional snow. The local airport says we have had 23 inches of snow...we haven't gotten that much here but we are down by the river and the airport is higher and always gets worse weather.
Anyway....here are a few snow pictures from today. It was cloudy with light snow.
