 >> we paid the neighborhood kid to shovel us
 >> out.. Ron told him  "here's 20 bux, shovel what you think is fair"..
 >> This great kid shoveled us out  completely :)

 JK> Yeah, it's always great to have teenagers live around you Lol These

Enterprising youngster...  :)  He probably got a number of customers that
day... :)

 JK> Our snow (what there is of it that's left)  now is full of gaps,
 JK> holes,  uncovered brush, dead lawn, etc. :)  Temperatures have been
 JK> darn low though..  brrr.... but today should be decent when it gets up
 JK> to the predicted 32F.. Now,  Friday.. we're going to have a heatwave
 JK> with temps hitting 37F! (hehe) 

Strange weather... never settles in...  we had rain today, turned the
snow on the ground (from the last two days) into slush, but now tonight
is turning colder and they're saying snow again...  Lows in the teens in
a couple of days... dunno what we're getting by Friday... ;)

 JK> I guess anytime we hear about 'weather issues', we do try to stock up 
 JK> somewhat..
 JK> I mean, imagine this house without coffee beans!!  :) :)
 JK> The nearest place to get decent coffee beans is in Ithaca, 10 minutes
 JK> away  driving time .

And if you got snowed in, it would take HOURS to walk it... 
 
 >> Still waiting for spring-ish temps though.. darn it's cold.. Guess
 >> it's  February.   :)
 > Welll.... yeah...  ;)   Give it a coupla months...  ;)

 JK> Yep, March is not that far off,  thanks goodness.

And April comes right after that and then Mayflowers...  ;)
