DUMPED ON AGAIN

Well last night it happened again. We got another 35-40 millimeters of snow. Fortunately our previous snow had melted because there would have been no place to shovel it to.

Surprisingly the roads were clear this time and I was able to take Daisy to the train station at noon.

She was able to get a picture of me shoveling so I thought you might enjoy it.

Oops. Wrong picture. That was one someone sent us of the snow in Canada. I don't know how that got in my blog. I guess the computer will only do what it's told.

Here is the correct one.

The 2 pictures are quite similar.

a. Both people have 2 legs

b. Both are holding shovels

c. Part of a house can be seen

d. There are trees visible

I'm sure that there are many other similarities so I can understand how the computer could have made a mistake. I would have deleted the Canadian picture but I posted this before I thought of that. Oh well.

THE BIG SNOW

I know that many of you back East have just experienced some mighty snow falls, but sometimes it's good to remember those who are less fortunate than you so I wanted to tell you briefly about our big storm.

As I walked past the upstairs window last Monday night I noticed that the ground was white. Well by the time we got up, we had not 22 inches of snow, not 32 inches of snow, not even 42 inches of snow.... We had 50 millimeters of snow and all that day the temperature hovered around zero degrees centigrade. Traffic was backed up in front of the campus which has never happened before. Although we had no command to stay off the roads, I decided to take the train to my meeting that I had planned to drive to.

I thought I'd send you a few pictures so that at least one of us can be thankful for what we have.
