April What !!!
“THEY” say: “April Showers Bring May Flowers”. April SHOWERS??? It is April 8 today and we are blessed with 19 inches of heavy snow. So heavy and slippery that my snow plow can’t handle it and got stuck several times. It is parked and we will have to wait for a bit of a thaw.
Read MoreA Couple of Hours Without … Internet!
On May 3, we lost power for several hours due to a severe wind storm. Power was out in areas from Helena to Basin, MT, in which we are in between. As the evening drew on, we new we needed to make some plans as the kids still had homework to do. We lit some […]

Ad Nauseum: Latin term used to describe an argument which has been continuing “[to the point of] nausea”. Our snow is now no longer a point of fascination. It has turned “monumental.” When I posted my previous entry, we had eight to ten inches of snow. Now, several hours later, I plowed one more time […]

A.K.A. – Where Is Global Warming When You Need It? This morning, we woke to a LOT of snow on the ground and much more falling from the air. While everyone got ready for church, I started up the snow plow and plowed the road up to our house. There was a lot, and it […]
