    Add maple syrup and you got breakfast :D

    make it for family; you need extra as school closed parents that need to go work call, drop Off an extra kid so yours has some one to play with. That dad drops his plow as a thanks..
    Kids go out make snow men and angels, boys will build a fort. Kids will get wet then cold..

    you put hat mitten coats near woodstove so they can dry. Kids are still cold so hot chocolate and toast (there’s extra milk and bread) til they warm up

    Who doesn’t make brownies for dessert this is why

    smart northern get extra milk eggs and bread


    Edited And smart dads keep an extra bottle bourbon in the shop

    We got about 3-4 inches last night and are getting more now. Cleared off the driveway this morning to get my wife into town for a Dr. appt. Not going to do anything more until tomorrow after the snow has stopped. Oak and elm keeping us warm.
    Lots of wind now.

    We've had about 3" of snow today and now it's freezing rain and 29 out. Some forecasts are calling for up to a quarter inch of ice. I've been working from home all afternoon and have been burning beech, sugar maple and red oak. The house is a comfy 72. I've got the generator ready just in case. It's actually very peaceful outside at the moment with just the rustling of the frozen rain falling.

    Close to 8" this morning with 10/70.

    Cleared snow off the deck and walk while the dogs did their best to fill it in again! Right now, there is a little "breather" in the weather with not so much snow falling but looking at the radar more (lots more) is on the way within an hour. Just had to back up and take a breath, I guess.

    Cancelled appointments for the day.
