glad

Today is one of those days that I'm really glad, no, ecstatic, that I do NOT own a car.

Why?

We've had something like 15 inches of snow today, and will probably get more tonight. MetroTransit pulled the busses off the roads this afternoon because they were getting stuck, and Hennepin County actually pulled the PLOWS off the roads this afternoon because the conditions were so terrible!

I have been watching my poor neighbors out my window, desperately trying to shovel themselves out, all afternoon. There is so much snow, and it's drifted so severely, you can barely see some cars! What I wonder is, how do you get inside your car to get your shovel and snow brush when you can't SEE your car?

Ah, winter.
