Cold and Snow

The temperature dropped last night and snow started about 9.  By 11 everything had a good covering and we went to bed anticipating clean up today.  But a neighbor ran his snow blower across our walk and saved us a bunch of labor. Clearing the steps and sprinkling a bit of salt around took care of most of the rest of what needed done.  But its supposed to stay very cold for the next 5 days and then, when this cold snap does end, we're supposed to get freezing rain.
