    As posted up thread. No need to shovel or clear off anything today. A good fire in the stove. Had a snowmaggeddon breakfast for us and the kids. Been running the saws in the wood shop building shelves for the new closet. Spouse has yesterdays chili on the stove. Game time is looming and the chili is warming.
    Can't think how this day could be better.

    Oh, and things are fairly quite on Ingo.....:):
    Right?! This is exactly what we do. Enjoy the time together and once it’s gone snow take care of it in the morning.

    We we spent all day in Broad Ripple. I got home and shoveled/cleared cars. Now the game is on and I’m in the recliner. Can’t think of how this day could be better.

    Just went back out to clean the drive and sidewalks.
    Since I cleaned off 4" this am, only an inchish this time: easy with the snow shovel.
    We'll see if the temps make the residue be a sheet of ice going to church tomorrow.

    Only problem I've had was with the idiots in their Escalades with 22 inch rims and those with bald tires who can't seem to take off from a stop light.

    I love getting in behind those who have all wheel drive but no idea how to turn it on. Seen it more than a few times over the last 2 winters.

    Slinging my Ford CVPI Sled all over the west side was fun :n00b:

    Thats my daily driver. She doesn't like to get moving from a stop, but once shes going it isnt to bad! Besides, what fun would it be to not drive sideways in the snow....

    Went out last night and did our grocery shopping for a while. Went to the range this morning. This evening we started off clearing the neighbors drive because they go to bed early and we wanted them to able to get to church in he morning and the walkway so they can get their morning paper, then we cleared the back yard for the dogs to get to the grass, finally we cleared out drive and walk to out to our porch.

    news just reported 6.9 inches in the Indy area. I went to work on the west side at 2pm. Drove the city streets after talking to our fuel delivery driver about the roadways and he advised city streets were better than interstates. When I left, I had to trudge through the heavy thick stuff to get to my car.
    When I got home around 11pm, the boy had been out and shoveled all of our walks and a nice big area in the backyard for the dogs.
