Snow Blind

It has been snowing since Yesterday morning- over 24 hours!

We shovel and shovel and an hour later, it has piled up again. It not so bad- it is Buffalo- and we expect a lot of snow, even in March and sometimes even April. It makes everything look clean and white again and it slows down the day to a crawl.

It is Saturday, so I think there is going to be a lot of stay-at-home-watching-movies going on in this town today. The Sabres play tonight in sunny Carolina, so it is good night to hunker down. But..... there is something about snowstorms that brings out the adventurer in me. I want to go out and 4-wheel drive around town, and there isn't an official driving ban-- so lets bundle up and explore!

In the past J. and I have:

  • Drove out to buy a TV (a special we couldn't resist) during a driving ban.
  • Spend all afternoon in a old-man's bar (pre-kids), drinking beer, playing the jukebox and shooting darts.
  • Take the dogs for a walk in desolate, ghost town-downtown (when we were early loft dwellers).
  • Stayed in and read all the books, magazines, pamphlets in the house.
  • Watched Bill Murray's Groundhog Day movie (several times in a row) increasing the movies circle of time theme
