This morning my husband took the garbage to the road. (drove my truck --- we have a really long driveway.) The driveway was almost drifted shut at 9:00 a.m. After dropping off the garbage at the road, he tried to Y turn the truck back around and ended up slipping down the hill --- sideways! Our driveway is in the middle of a steep hill, and that steep hill has very deep ditches. So, sliding sideways down the hill is a little scary -- even for him! All turned out well, of course the big joke was, "why didn't you just let it go into the ditch!" -- I have 163,000 miles on that truck and it just won't die! ---- he says I have to drive it till 200,000 miles. Ughh!

| Our road at 2:00 this afternoon. |
About a month ago, a neighbor was driving down the hill, did a cheerio right at our driveway and wiped out the mailbox. No digging a hole now. It is now in a pot of Quik Crete, working out just fine. She went into the "not quite so deep ditch", popped a tire and had to be pulled out. Country driving in Northeast Wisconsin -- we just go with the flow.
We are expecting 4-6" of snow through tonight, and we are trying to keep a smile on our face. I went looking for any kind of color out there.

The dogwood is getting bright, bright, red.
Against all that "grey" -- it makes me smile. |
