That evening I was out driving around for a little bit. My car nearly got stuck leaving a subdivision. And the high wind gusts made it difficult to determine whether there was oncoming traffic when I was trying to get out. But it all worked out okay.
Later I went to a store to get milk, etc. Amazing how empty stores get once a blizzard has started!
Next morning, we woke up to discover over a foot of new snow. SNOW DAY! Except for Sarah, who really needed to go in to work. Unfortunately, the van got stuck in the snow on the road in front of our driveway... just too deep. But we got the van back up the driveway okay.
The county plowed our road around mid-afternoon. Sarah was finally able to leave for work! I left after her to clear my parents' driveway. Their little snowblower valiantly removed lots of snow from their driveway!
