I went out at 530 this AM to drive the fory miles to work. I have a 1/4 mile driveway but I was unfazed. Until I backed my fourwheel drive with diff lock on out of the garage. The snow was so deep and packed that it just lifted the body up. I managed to crab it into the garage, and called to say I would be late.

I called my plow man and his wife said that he was out and stuck in his two ton plow rig. He was waiting for some help to arrive in the form of his giant tractor plow.

Haven't seen a snow like this for a while.... and I am no wuss.

Yeah, me too. I think some folks really hold a grudge against my hubby and I for working with the Bush campaign. Mot all of the troop greeters support our troops mission. I have heard some pretty heavy Bush bashing done from greeters to our troops while I have been there.

Wow! That's odd.

Peaceniks trying to establish credentials as "troop supporters?"

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Well, Hells Bells!
Greeting the Troops is NOT a time for partisan politics!
You and your family have done so much for us..
You deserve the utmost respect!!
GRRRRR!!!!
That really fries my buns!
Ms.B

[Madame Dufarge]

Fries mine too.

If you two go and want some company, let me know and we'll come too.

[armymarinemom]

Sounds like a plan. After getting home I have been keeping really low key. Just plain tired.

[Madame Dufarge]

Just plain tired.

You work hard enough, God knows.

Well, another 5 months or so, it'll be Spring....

You better tell your "three" to come home soon so they can shovel you out of the next snow storm, ha! (God bless them).

[armymarinemom]

Hey, I think it's slowing down!!!




I finally had to shovel the deck in order for the poor dog to get into the yard.

Wow...those pix are gorgeous.
Our daughter's planning on moving to Maine

[MS.BEHAVIN]

I will double check times with hubby, and post back to you!
I would LOVE to meet you both!

Marines love SeaBee's and Corpsmen. We never considered you guys 'Navy.'

[Madame Dufarge]

Great.

I'd love to meet you, too!

[Mr. K]

Always got along great with Marines, and have some great memories of "trades" in Roosevelt Rhodes, P.R. when we were building an airstrip for you.

Youngest just back from Iraq 3 mos.. Due to go back after more killer training in CP, CA. ;)

Semper Fi Marine!

We only got about 12 inches or so over here in NH. Kind of wet, I think that I am going to buy a bobcat. I also think that Madam is going to kick your butt over your post.

That's the part I like!

You don't think we have snow in Western NY? Between Syracuse and Buffalo...we broke all the records.

[Little Bill]

Strange ways, Lynn was bad, but I think those on the South Shore had a different view of pain.

[brooklin]

Iowa is soooo metropolitan.;)

[metesky]

Talked some pals on the Cape, all rain down there and they were gloating because they got whacked a couple of weeks ago.

Still snowing here...
