Blizzard just in time for Christmas

(1/3) > >>

BrianS:
Looks like Santa is going to need Rudolph for this one. Sure glad I retired and do not have to plow at the Church this weekend. My Wife and I have decided to just stay home and not attempt the one hour on good roads trip to my Step Daughters house on Christmas. Right now the sky has blue showing through but looks a bit strange. We had a whole house generator installed a couple of years ago. Snowthrowers and chainsaws are all ready if needed.
take care , Brian
