Had about a foot of snow yesterday.
Cleared behind and beside the car. (I don't do any more than I have to. LOL)
This morning, it's up on the bumper of the car again. Maybe 2 feet?
STILL snowing!

I don't shovel snow anymore. Throw another log on the fire and let nature take her course.

She said she didn't think she could get out of her driveway in Spanaway because she had almost a foot of snow, and was expecting more. When I suggested that she should have been working on it during the weekend, instead of waiting until late Sunday afternoon, she said she didn't have a snow shovel. I told her to ask a neighbor to borrow a shovel. She replied back later that the only shovel she could find/borrow was a clamming shovel, so she used that! LOL, only in western WA! PRICELESS!!! Some people's kids.... SMH

I have one of Joelle’s Co workers crashing here so I’ll be a 6am taxi to the hospital so these nurses can get to work! WOW, we have not had any outages in East Grays Harbor.... Yet, crossing our fingers & hoping you get yours restored.

Took my son on a field trip to South Sound Center to show him how traction control works (by turning it off.... wheeeeee) Good to hear Dan. In my youth I searched out vacant parking lots to do some serious untraction control....

Yesterday, drove from the Tri-Cities to Spokane area doing 60+ most of the way in my Subaru Legacy.
To be fair, there's less snow here than in W WA right now. But the big difference is the number of people and the preparation out here.
It was fun to people watch in the Tri-Cities though. I'll be politically correct and say there are a large number of people there who were born and raised in a warmer part of the world and don't know how to drive in the snow...and don't buy Subarus and other AWD cars.

Train tracks are about 600 feet from this window.
So much snow on the trees that I can hear a train go by, but I can't see it.
Only had 2 trains in several hours. Probably also because of the snow.

Just finished shoveling off our driveway for the third fucking time. Came inside and.... it's snowing again.
