Well, when the dust settled, we had 14" in the backyard, with some 2' drifts here and there. We took the kids sledding at a nearby park in the Jeep. I love the idiots who think 4wd makes them bulletproof, I watched an Explorer spin out and bury itself in a drift--and I resisted the temptation to stop and help him dig out, too
Just like I drive by the idiots who Bigfoot it or drive with 36 psi in their tires on the beach.
Tomorrow's assignment is to dig out the wife's car, and shovel that half of the driveway.
Funy thing here I noticed is, the quality of the plowing varies according to who is doing it. I live on the border between two towns, and my town has the roads pretty well dry. The next town west did a terrible job, there's still roads that a plow hasn't visited. The county roads are down to the pavement curb to curb, but the state maintained ones are a disgrace.
