Winter Wonderland

Wouldn't you know, last night I had a dinner scheduled with former work buddies.  Worst snow day of the year so far!  But, I bundled up and went out.



 It took me a half hour to get to The Lake House - it's normally a 12 minute drive.
We had a wonderful evening.  The place was packed!  Great Wednesday night attraction - half off drinks and half off all appetizers.  So we drank and munched!
We headed out to the parking lot, my car was covered with snow and dah!....no snowbrush.  Wello, we haven't had any snow so .....didn't even think about it.  Joni came to the rescue and made me get in and warm the car while she cleaned my car off!  Thanks J!
Onward;;;;thank goodness Diane was leading the way down Seaway Drive.....you couldn't see the road...it was a white out.  No tracks either.  Oh my gosh!



That's out my windshield!  Got home safe and sound.
All that blizzard like stuff resulted in this beauty this morning.



And look who came to visit.

  3. The roads looked a bit scary. It is always great chatting with old friends. Your doggie looks a bit puzzled, like what in the world is all this stuff. LOL Hugs Judy
