Just Flurries, But Miserable Anyway

I had an 8 am appointment for an oil change at Access, so the plan was for Ron to meet me there and drive us both to shovel snow off the porch roof.

I got stuck behind several inspections. Bad timing on my part, this being the end of the month. Ron took a while to get ready, so we met at the town hall parking lot to consolidate vehicles.

Between the two of us, mostly Ron, we were able to clear about 75% of the snow. We’d planned to use the extension ladder, but the lock froze.

We were making decent progress using an ice breaker and small shovel, but Peter’s back was bad, so I stopped work to drive him in Ron’s van to the walk-in clinic. I waited for a bit, left to make a bank deposit and started back for Ron.

By that time it was snowing, and not just a flurry. The van fishtailed on me a couple of times, so I left it at the town hall and took the truck. Around that time, Peter texted that he was done, so back to the clinic, then dropped him off at Cape Coffee so he could pick up Bonnie’s car, which is a four-wheel drive.

Continued to Edgewater to bring Ron to his van.

I got back home just in time to meet Jack S. Both of us had a chance to talk with Jack.

Roads on the Cape were bad; there was a multi-car accident on Route 130 near the Mashpee Market that happened less than an hour after we were in the same spot.

Skipped the User Group meeting tonight in Plymouth. Ron and I fell asleep, and I didn’t wake up until 6:15.
