For those you who like snow...

...like me. :D I had to clean my car off to go home at lunch time. There was about 15 cms of snow on my van. As I completed the first lap, I arrived again at my hood (bonnet?) and there was about another cm there to greet me. On the way home, the roads were whited-out into the ditches. Careful where you drive. One city bus, two semis and half a dozen cars stuck. Most interesting was seeing the snowplow that was stuck, however (albeit hung up on a post...but still). I have a 35 metre driveway to shovel that's about 4 metres wide. Plus a 30 metre sidewalk that's 1.5 metres wide. That's okay, that's what my kids are for (shoveling, that is). I'll be headed to the community centre to shovel the two hockey rinks after work. Should be a hoot. We have two snowblowers, but the one doesn't run and the other doesn't run well. Being a community centre, we don't have a tonne of cash to get them working. That's okay, that's what the neighbourhood teens are for (shoveling, that is). I'm most interested in seeing how most of my work mates are going to get out of the lot here after work is out. We'll have had 30+ cm today and most of them haven't switched over to snow tires. Silly kids! -jc

You sound like a parent from the third world with loads of kids. :) I'll bet you just had them to provide shoveling services in your old age.
