Finally Some Snow!
Crazy snow storm here last night. I love it! I actually wish we'd gotten more snow though, instead of the freezing rain that came half way through the storm. The roads were pretty bad last night. Snow removal is attrocious here; I'm used to Caribou where they plow all night. MDI is like that too. They plow non stop until it stops snowing and all the roads are cleared.
Amme and I went down town to go to a restaurant but there was nowhere to park so we went to UNOs instead. On the way out of Old Bangor we almost got stuck, crawling up a steep hill at about 0.5mph. At one intersection there were cars stuck at either end of a light and nobody was moving. We were glad to be heading perpendicular to all that. UNOs was good. In the past I've had an aversion to it, I'm not sure why, but their food is really good and the prices are fair. There was a really strange girl in the booth next to us talking to her boyfriend like you'd talk to a kitty going "broccoliiiiii... Eat it broccoliiiiii! brooooooooooooocoliiii!" it was bizzare to say the least.
This morning there was a layer of ice over everything.the parts of my car that had snow were really easy to clean, I just punched the ice and it broke apart, but the rear and side windows were frozen solid. I cleaned tiny holes to see out of the sides, and the back cleaned off fine. I had to rock back and forth for 5 minutes to get out of my spot though. Damn plows never come in the morning...
Oh yeah, I saw a truck off the road on the interstate. This guy must have been cruising, because he was on top of a snowbank. Talk about a bad morning:

We actually ended up with more snow than Albany because it never actually changed to sleet. We got about 18 inches or so by the time it was all said and done.
