We woke up to at least 8 inches of snow. I could hardly open the door because of the snow. Thank goodness I had the snow shovel in the house, so I just shovel from inside the house until I could get out the door. Only shoveled the front where are door is, and the bridge. Later I shoveled the back door but had to go outside to do that for I couldn't get that back door open at all because of all the snow. Sam came down with his tractor and plow and made us a path from the highway to the carport. I couldn't believe how deep the snow was and when he came down to the house, you should see the pile of snow he left. I tried to get the car up to the mailbox but I still couldn't make it. First I had to clean off the car which not only was cover with snow but ice too. The car started fine and I left it on with the defrosters on and finally the ice melted enough for me to scrap it off. I didn't have any problems backing out of the carport but couldn't make it up to the mailbox because of the hill. I finally had to back it back down, but got it stuck in front of the carport. I finally got it in the carport but it took a little while. The mail-lady drove down to our house to deliver our mail. Ken got some medicine but we are still expecting more. Ken was on the computer quite awhile today. I think he finally got all his e-mail read.
