It's been snowing all day-that heavy wet heart attack snow. I used the snow blower and cleaned out my driveway and the driveway next door. When I came in I was soaking wet. I heard on the news that our govenor declared a state of emergency ( which means unless it is absolutely necessary, stay off the roads). We are pretty used to this kind of weather and as long as power lines stay up, all is good. I hope all of our neighbors to the east stay warm and dry. Take care all in the path of this blizzard.
