More room up there and I didn't have to worry about skidding out of control and having to wait for the spring thaw. When shoveling cars out of the snow, I usually continue digging outward until I reach the plow zone. That way, a snow plow (or snow plot) has no ammunition to spew on or behind a car I am excavating. -----Original Message----- From: Candy Madigan [mailto:candymadigan at mindspring.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 19, 2003 12:39 PM To: WSFA members Subject: [WSFA] Re: Snow Day` At 11:08 AM 2/19/2003 -0500, you wrote: >Still no school today!

But then, I've been braving the roads every day. Of course, if I had lived on your street, I might be less inclined to take the risk. Candy
