I wonder if we'll get some snow this afternoon? Our area is only supposed to see flurries, but it's a good reminder for Linda to be prepared. The first real snow of the year is panic time for her. For one, her ice scraper in the car isn't where it's supposed to be. Next, her snow shovel is stored behind a bunch of boxes and junk in the garage and finally she never has any ice melt that is OK for dogs paws. Today she is going to make sure that both the shovel and scraper are where they belong and will research the best pet friendly ice melt. Our deck stairs can get so slippery in the winter that I have to be carried down them to visit the backyard. (Remember, the steps are taller than I am. It's hard enough going up and down the deck steps when they are dry.) She is so thankful that the Tom's installed the giant flood light in the backyard. Imagine Linda trying to carry me down icy steps during a blizzard in the pitch dark?

This was a really bad snowstorm. Linda was home alone for at least 3 days straight and couldn't drive anywhere, but she has such fond memories of the time. She loves being home and still got plenty of exercise with all the shoveling she did.
