MONSTER

The snow started earlier than the weather folk said it would.The coming storm had been talked about for days and last night it was finally here. It was snowing pretty hard when Koda and I went for our last walk of the day, but I went to bed thinking that it could not really get as nasty as they said it might. the winter so far had been a non event. And besides they never get it exactly right,,,

And they did not this time either, it was much worse. The sound of our next door neighbor's driveway being plowed woke us up, and we just stayed in bed watching the beautiful snow fall - until I came down stairs and found that we could not get out of the house! At least with out me shoveling off the steps...
It snowed all day, we had plans to see an early movie with a friend, but canceled, turns out everything was closed anyway.

The hospital even called and said that they could not even get in. People were foolish this morning and all headed out, I guess before things , work, stores were closed. All of Rochester came to a stand still , every major express way was shut down, wrecks everywhere. We can handle winter weather here for sure, but not this much , this fast - and not having any practice so far this season.

Record snow for this date, and a .10 of an inch off the all time February record... a  lot of snow!



Kept going all morning and after noon, the nice man that plows the side walks could not keep up.
