Here on the front range of the Rocky Mountains we awoke to falling snow, all - day - long. Only the second significant snowfall this winter. Shoot, two weeks ago I was on a motorcycle ride into the foothills with a few of my riding buddies.
What do we love to do in a snow storm? Head out for groceries. While everyone else is at home watching Law and Order reruns, blankets and snuggies engaged, my wife and I glove and boot it to the local market. One lane open, no waiting. The snow plow guys were out in force happy to finally make some dough and pay the mortgage. AND - we really needed to get to Wendy's to cash in our Eagles Hockey tickets for the 6 goal - one gets you three from the value menu. You could hear the crowd heckling the Mudbugs goalie to give up one more for our free Wendy's. Three movies from the Redbox, burger wrappers crunched up on the coffee table, and we had a nice afternoon. Wife and kids are rooting for a snow day tomorrow. We'll see, the grinning plow drivers may dash our hopes.
