It's not the first snow of the season. There was a hint of snow a few weeks ago. A couple nights ago there was enough that a bit shoveling was called for. Today there is snow and wind, and maybe sleet and perhaps freezing rain as well. It's a good day to stay home. I'm not going to bother shoveling or trying the snowblower until after the freezing rain and such has passed. I'd rather have the ice on top of the snow than down on the concrete.
It wasn't just too bad this morning so
jmaynard and I went out for breakfast. We decided after that it was a good idea to stay home the rest of the day. Someone had a van stuck for a while across the street. By the time I was dressed up enough to go and see if any help could be provided, they had gotten moving. So I just got the mail... and then watched the van come around the block again and just barely make it to the main street. Yep, I'm not going anywhere today. Staying in, maybe with some hot chocolate, is a really good idea.
