Church is cancelled this morning due to the seven inches of snow that fell in the past 20 hours. We got seven inches of snow regularly in Iowa and Rochester, but church was never cancelled there. If we still lived in one of those places, I would have had to wake up early to clear the driveway so that we could leave. Instead, I got to sleep in and enjoy my coffee. Viva North Carolina.

We brought our snow blower with us when we moved to North Carolina from Rochester. I suppose I could use it to clear the driveway, and to clear my neighbors’ driveway. That would be very considerate.
