To: WSFA members <WSFAlist at keithlynch.net> Reply-To: WSFA members <WSFAlist at keithlynch.net> So, who is still snowed in? Rich and I spent yesterday morning shoveling 18" of snow out of the driveway. Then the snow plot when by. We spent the afternoon clearing the driveway of the snow the plow left. The driver was having a lot of fun driving up and down the street blowing his horn and filling driveways. So we have about a lane and a half cleared where there isn't a buried car, on this part of the street. The half of the street not near the middle school had less plowing and if you live on a cul-de-sack off our street, you're there until spring or the plow decides to come back. What little we saw of Gaithersburg was not encouraging. Quince Orchard, normally a two lane divided road is one lane each way, no right hand turn lanes. The local PO is open, but all the trucks were parked in the parking lot making it hard to get in. It didn't look like much, if any, of NIST was plowed. We had no trouble getting into Giant Food, but there were few people there. Unless a lot more plowing is done, I doubt there will be school or the Fed opening tomorrow. So, what's it like where you are? Nicki ===== Nicki Lynch ===== MIMOSA web site: http://www.jophan.org/mimosa __________________________________________________ Yahoo!
