Pony Party: Snowpocalypse II

Oy vey gevalt.

It’s been coming down for almost 24 hours now as I type this…and the wind has picked up, meaning drifts.

There’s a guy across the street with a snowblower, but from the way it looks right now, you’d have to shovel or snow-blow at least every hour to have any hope of maintaining a semi-clear sidewalk.

The road crews are out, but even the main streets aren’t that great b/c it just keeps coming down.

South-central PA, just above the Mason-Dixon Line, isn’t used to this.  Snow, yes, but not this volume of snow.

I’m on one of the major downtown streets — a snow emergency route, so you can’t park on the street if we get a snow emergency.  Saw two cars being towed this a.m.: I do feel sorry for them, but you can park (for free!) in a couple of the downtown garages in these situations.

Poor King Tut, my fire-escape kitty, seems to want to go outside…but is dissuaded when I open the window and snow falls & blows inside.  (Naturally, the fire escape would be on the west side of the building.)  He’s been out in the snow before — last night he chased another cat down the fire escape — but I think this storm is worse than even my little intrepid boy wants to deal with.

Oh well.  Just started a nice pot roast (beer & beef so far…will add carrots, onions & turnips later, and then thicken the broth into gravy at the very end) and I’m inside, warm & dry, and so far still have DSL.

So, let’s have some fun on a day that is not too much fun for most people in the Mid-Atlantic region:
