I looked out the bathroom window this morning and my sweet tooth began to ache. The snow that had been whipped around the last several days had the appearance on the patio porch of pure white Divinity Candy. It almost made me drool. I love Divinity. Unfortunately the bank of ice and snow at the end of our driveway was far from white and desirable. To get some fresh air I did walk down the driveway this forenoon, compliments of neighbor Randy and the great job he had done on the snow removal. Silly me . . . I had taken the scooper with me to the end of the driveway. I took one stab at it and it bounced off as if it were a Nerf scooper. It was nothing more than a mass of snow that was laced with ice. I nicely walked back and parked the scooper.
I did happen to think of my nephew who has contracts with some of the large parking lots in the metro for snow removal. I wonder how far back in his machine shed he had to dig out the snowblower. Last year he was doing some early field planting by April 11th.
I am content and have no feelings of cabin fever. This weather will get itself turned around. With the water dripping off of the west awning this afternoon, I am sure enough will melt that we will be able to take more on the Wednesday forecast of . . . snow.
