hopefully you don't get any wind because then you have a big problem.

We went to San Antonio a couple years ago, and a day trip up to Fredricksburg, was very surprise in how good some of those Temperanillo's were.

Sorry to hijack, back to the storm.... :-)

No problem Joe. I plowed our driveway at midnight with about 5/6 of a bottle of a wonderful Barbaresco in my belly : ) See, wine and storms can be related.

Well Gail did not disappoint. I've been digging out since 6:30 am. 33" of snow here, some areas up here up to 4'. Amazing. Thank God it's a "light snow". Kind of like "Vegas is a dry heat," Yeah, so is a pizza oven. It's never light when you're moving it.

Upstate NY just above the PA border near Binghamton, NY. We made the news as the most snow with this storm. At midnight there was maybe 5-6" and at 6am over 30. It was a sight to see.

Andy I feel your pain. I'm about 25 miles east of Binghamton near Pennsy border, 38" and deeper in many spots. Just came in and outside of the driveway it looks like I did nothing. Yesterday I was trying to decide if I should bow hunt or grouse hunt, after today neither is gonna happen for the rest of the season. Stay dry and don't push yourself.

About 18" here in Central Massachusetts.

A few IPAs and some nice red were a must after moving all that snow !

If I might ask. For those of you praying for the snow and rain to stop. Please change the wording of your prayers and start asking the Good Lord to not stop this snow and rain, but ask him to move it to Arizona.��
