It started snowing at 4:15 AM today, and it hasn't stopped! It has been snowing like crazy! All the main highways in the state are closed and cars have been abandoned all over. It took us 2 hours to drive home from work (usually a 30 minute drive) and a few miles from our house, the driver's side windshield wiper broke. Like really broke. It was completely unconnected from the little arm thing. Divine providence is the only thing that possibly could have held it on. We kept expecting it to go flying off. There was no place safe to stop and try to fix it, so we kept going. The wiper cleaned one tiny spot right above the steering wheel, so Aaron was all hunkered down trying to see out of that one spot. We got home (amazingly enough) and found that we had about 1 1/2 feet of snow in our driveway. We got in and had to shovel the snow away from the door to get it to close! Here are our tire tracks in the driveway.
We went inside and made some stew. That was great and yummy. After sitting around inside for a little while, we ventured outside to check the mail. Here are our tire tracks 2 hours after coming home:
You can't even tell that we ever came in! The snow is so thick and heavy! And it is continuing to pound down! Here is our window well full of snow:
And Aaron in the snow. Remember how he is 6' 5"? That means he his knees are about 2 feet from the ground. Well, here they are covered in snow. We have some serious white stuff! We'll keep you updated as more happens.
