Just a short report. Everything is fine here.
Are we snowed/blowed in right now.!! We had a terrible wind last night and it seemed like a hurricane blew until morning. Snow plastered the studio windows. But one good thing is how great it will scour off the dirty windows outside when it blows that way. Glad this house is sturdy. At least none of the siding came off this time.
Its hard to know how much snow fell, but you couldn't see from the back door to the shop for the snow blowing horizontally. Every once in a while when I got up I would try to check pinedaleonline weather to see how hard the wind was blowing, but Pinedale kept reporting calm or 6 mph. People I talked to in town today said that it didn't blow there. It was coming from the north, which direction catches the storm doors and tries to tear them off the house, so I couldn't let the dogs go out. Joe finally got them out for a few minutes and I hoped that would hold them until morning.
The county snow plow driver has offered to come in again and clear our road out. He said Mayo's road was really packed in hard too when they worked there today. (I wondered if Phyllis got to her teaching job in Farson today.) So I will call him back in the morning and tell him to come, then Frosty can do it again after that. Now Joe is being concerned about me getting out for my appointments, worried that this kind of weather will keep up. And we have more snow than we have for years. He thinks its so bad we need to give up trying to keep the road open and start snowmachining again. And I don't think that's a good idea. If it gets difficult I might try to go stay with someone in town for a while. Today was really nice here, but roads were closed all over the area. The plows are having a hard time getting them open. Check http://www.pinedaleonline.com/ to read that story.
Joe was supposed to go for a haircut today, but we called and cancelled that this morning. He will have to get another appointment. I painted a little while today. Trying to get that same old commission finished. It wouldn't take long if I'd stick to it. Other than that, no news that I know of. My cold is slowly getting better. Had a few phone calls so got to visit.
Cute note from Charm - she went to town today - and hauled her groceries in 10 miles on the snowmachine sled:.... No mail today. Roads were closed between here and Rock Springs. Terrible winds along the I-80 corridor between Rock Springs and Salt Lake. The produce truck couldn't get to P-dale, so, yes, they had no bananas at Ridley's.
