You know it's serious when the malls close

Snow, snow, and more snow.  (Actually it's pretty neat.  Z and her friends are off frolicking in the snow this morning.  It's a great day for it.)

When the schools close, conditions are bad.  When universities close, it's really bad.  When malls close....

Last night I had to shovel the driveway in order to get in (thanks to Dick from next door for helping) and this morning I had to shovel so that Barb could get out.  It's currently snowing about an inch an hour so I may well be shoveling again later.

The dogs wanted to go for a long walk but the snow's too deep.  In the areas where a path has been shoveled, the snow's higher than them and they can't see anything.  When they tried going where it hasn't been shoveled, they sank chest-deep and their feet still weren't touching the ground.  They decided it's a good day for a nap.

I wonder if anyone will make it to meeting tonight.
