"Went to bed at about 8pm planning on getting up around midnight to
see
if plowing was necessary. It was. I didn't want to let the snow get
too high because it gets difficult to see where things are.
Just finished doing our driveway and the driveways of two neighbors.
Visibility is next to nothing. Heavy, blowing snow. A little sit
depressing considering the Weather Channel just said the peak of the
storm is just now approaching New York. Gonna be a long day tomorrow.

Just happened to be up for a head visit at 0545 AST this morning and
the snow had just started.
Could be a long day.
I haven't bought winter tires in over 30 years but I actually called
the local Toyota dealer yesterday.
Parts dept said they don't have 17" steel rims for my Highlander so I
bailed
Saved myself about $ 1500.00. ;-)-
Who buys tires from a dealer?-
Those adverse to going on a Wal Mart shopping spree?
Although, I'll have to admit that Costco saved me about $80 total on the
four Michellins I had
installed. Damn tires are getting expensive. What happened to the good
ol' days when one could go to
the local Standard station and get used tires for $10?

Guns don't cause problems. The behavior
of certain gun owners causes problems.
Or buy gas for 21 cents a gallon.
That also reminds me.
Gosh, when I was a boy, my mom could send me down to the store with a $1 bill, and I could come back
with 5 potatoes, 2 loaves of bread, 3 bottles of milk, a hunk of cheese, and box of tea and 6 eggs.
Damn shame that those days are long gone.
Too many security cameras.
