How many of you are out with your garden tools trying to shovel the white
stuff? Never mind snow plows, I can't imagine that anyone has a snow
shovel. My brother-in-law was a temporary resident in warmer climes when a
freak snowstorm dumped a few inches on unbeknownst residents. He shovelled
the whole street with a garden spade. No one else knew what to do. And
yes, Mike, driving is extremely dangerous -- we experience erratic driving
every year with the first snowfall. I hope that you are staying put.

Ottawa, Canada (zone 4) -- no real snow forecast for the rest of the week --
the white mulch is down to a little over two feet.
