The Blizzard of 2010

	It finally finished snowing around 6pm lat night. On Friday I went out and shoveled every 2-3 hours in an effort to stay ahead of the storm. Needless to say, when I awoke on Saturday it looked as if I had done nothing. Saturday was the same deal. Jenna and I went out every few hours and attempted to clear our walkways and driveway. The final accumulation must be around 33 inches. I measured it and got 25 inches but that was after it had compacted. The snow is halfway up my eight foot fence. I've never seen this much snow.
This was a heavy, wet snow that has caused numerous problems in the Mid Atlantic. The National Guard has been called in but has yet to show up on our street. Hopefully, a plow will appear sometime today. I would just like to walk up the block and visit the neighbor's. My trees on the side of the house don't appear as if they are going to survive this storm. They took a beating back on December 19th when we got 19 inches. This will just do them in. I'm sure I'll have to remove them in the spring.
	I've done so much shoveling this weekend that my entire body is sore. I guess it is from using all the muscles that don't get used to often. I'm dreading when the plows finally come. The mountain of snow a the bottom of my driveway that will need to be removed is crazy. It most likely will amount to a couple of tons of snow.
