He should have come out in W Michigan, Wisconsin and other areas of the midwest and had a look. We had about 12 inches, with poor visibility and crazy winds! We were under a Blizzard Warning! I got up early this morning to check things out and then called my client's family and said I wasn't going out today. It wasn't safe for me to venture out in the blizzard. By the time the snow waned off and stopped it was nearly noon. Took a couple hours at least for the three of us to clear the snow. I have posted plenty of after the blizzard pictures in the photo album. Have a look! Jeff is out on a finishing round to completely clear off the driveway. It's a beast! Sammy was stunned when Jeff let him out this morning and the snow was up to his belly! Whew that is cold, huh Sammy boy??
This snowstorm was no big surprise. Jeff had predicted this storm for days. Matthew and I went to the store after school yesterday to make sure we had plenty of milk and other groceries. I had a nice lunch with my friends and then got the banking and bills done and even finished laundry!
Moday was spent in Kalamazoo. Matthew had a college visit day. Our first tour was at the Theatre, our guide was very friendly and helpful in preparing for college over the next year. Looks like Matthew will have to have a portfolio of photos and such of the sets he has worked on over the years. Then we visited with the Occupational Therapy department in a very nice new building! The advisor gave us lots of good information and had a thorough tour of the labs and classrooms. Matthew decided after that meeting that OT is probably not for him, and techincal design and production is more up his alley. Our last stop was at the admissions office for general information and campus tour. It was nicer than I remember it, and Matthew liked it too. It was very very cold and I bowed out just over half way through and waited in the admissions office. I made the right decision. Matthew and Jeff were pretty cold when they returned. Part of our plan was dinner at Cici's not far from campus. When we arrived they were closed....forever. What a big let down for us! Instead we stopped at another of Matthew's favorites, Steak N Shake. It certainly was a day to remember, and fun to share with Matthew as he plans his future. Our day wasn't over yet. Matthew needed a new coat, so we stopped at Burlington Coat Factory and got him a new coat, snow pants and gloves! Good thing too, he got to use them all today!
So Mr. Groundhog, it is still snowy and very cold..I think we have plenty of winter left.
By the Way~Snow Day #5 tomorrow! Just found out.
