The Northeast Kingdom is looking forward to a two day snow storm beginning around 10:00 AM this morning and guess where my better half is right now? About 2 hours south of here attempting to take care of the usual quilt shop business that springs up around this time of the year (first sign that her selling season has started). In light of this, I’m "minding the store" as it were while she’s out and about getting as much business taken care of as she can and hopefully getting back here before the storm hits in earnest.
I hate it when this happens.
But living up here in the "Kingdom" one must do what one must do in spite of weather. If you tried to make exceptions you’d never get anything done.
So if anyone stops by today, think good thoughts about Laurie and her travels through yet another snow storm that’s about to slam New England especially the areas she’ll be driving through. I’m sure she’ll need all the positive vibes she can get…and me too.
Good luck Laurie! I’m off to get the reverse repaired on my fiancee’s car right now. 45 mins each way to the shop and an our at means I’ll be on my way home during the storm. The problem is, without reverse I’ll never get the car to back out of the driveway with fresh snow.
BTW Kirk, I’m now living in VT, and I love the newest site design since I’m on a very restrictive satellite ISP.
You’re getting what is winding down here in Michigan, (started last night). Man oh man what a winter this has been! Good luck to Laurie!
fhdogs,
Let me officially welcome you to Vermont! And yes, a car without reverse should never pull into a parking space “front end to”. I know I would certainly get tired of pushing my rig backwards out of the driveway, especially the backing out into the road part and running around to the driver’s side before oncoming drivers became to impatient.
Glad you like the new design. Easier on everybody all around.
Elaine,
I agree 100%! And at least another month to go. Never fear, Spring’s nearly here.
And thanks for your well wishes! Laurie made it back in good time, got all her business accomplished and the temperature stayed just above freezing so the roads remained clear. Nothing like the power of the minds, yes?
Thanks all.
