>Fortunately my Minnesota Boy keeps stuff like that around. Also those plastic "boats" we use for sleds. We even have a snow board bought at the last trip North. The bad part is that the temp was hovering around 32 yesterday and there is a lot of slush under the snow on our street. They were shoveling the gutters of the street late last night to get it to drain so there wouldn't be 6 inches of ice this morning. I haven't been out to see the results. The plow hasn't come by yet either. Of course we're woefully short on "real" plows here. I grew up in the Boston area so I know how it's done right.

I don't want to hear it. I dug out the car this morning...I was supposed to be somewhere warm and sunny before this happened!
