Mar 16, 2026: war

Back to war with the snow.

First we attacked the driveway. Reports of between 24 and 27 total inches are beginning to trickle in - depending on where in Appleton you might sit. I can attest, it was at least 2 feet.

Later in the morning, I went at the entrance path to the house. If you count the times the kids went at it, and I went at it, I bet we took a total of 7 or 8 shifts. And that doesn't count the neighbors who showed up to borrow our driveway because they had nowhere to put a car. They also took a crack at the end of the driveway for us.

The plows didn't get to us until today, and let me tell you, they didn't leave a speck of snow in our driveway. I have no idea what magic they used, but fuck if it wasn't appreciated. From one wizard to another, I doff my cap to thee.

Hell of a storm.
