My wife had trouble getting up our driveway this morning and I had to do it for her. Then she was going to leave our neighborhood and I had to run out and stop her from going down the hill. A few cars had already run off the road and she could have gone into a ravine if it was too icy. I still can’t believe that they had not salted at all even though they had been calling for rain/ice all week.

went out to try and salt this morning and couldn’t get anywhere in the dump…waited it out for an hour or so then headed out, never saw so many wrecked cars just littering the sides of the roads. Only made it out cuz the township was running the their trucks in reverse salting as they went.

let the dog out in the morning & she slipped & fell on her nose in the driveway. It was kinda funny. Poor pooch.

I figured if a 4 legged critter can’t walk, no sense in me leaving the house this morning.

I left my house aroun 12pm & all was fine.
