Snowstorm Aftermath
Dec. 5th, 2009 12:13 pmGot up this morning and immediately went into my back exercises. I knew that I'd be shoveling a metric assload of snow after the storm that blanketed the city.
As I put on my boots and coat, nosarious came around the corner wearing his coat and boots, so we did the shoveling together. Thank heavens, because we were out there for about 45 minutes.
The worst part was coming around the corner and seeing that my car was trapped in the garage. I originally identified this as a "four foot drift", but the photo evidence seems somewhat shorter then that. Don't ask me to estimate six inches either.


In this picture I'm actually standing on a small, two foot square piece of bare concrete - it miraculously kept form having any snow dumped on it due to the way the winds spun around the building. There's a similar, higher drift in my backyard.
