The Traditional New England Family Sport: Snow Shoveling

On February 28, 2010, in Life in New England, by Editor

We have had snow falling for the last three days, and at the moment there is no end in sight. The 150 feet long driveway had already been plowed, but the guy who does that for us had to plow around the big branch that broke from one of our huge oak trees. That tree made it now to the top of our to-be-cut list for the summer.

Say what you need to say: No more snow, please!

This morning I turned the radio off due to the happy snow report from the Vermont ski resorts (Our house is about 15 miles South of Vermont). We are in the middle of a major snow storm with several towns in the neighborhood declaring an emergency due to loss of electrical power and severe road conditions. After all, this is New England, and harsh winter conditions don’t come as a surprise. Ergo, if somebody declares an emergency here, it must be severe.
