SNOWSTORM WITH A CAPITAL "S" - we're outa here!!

Well here we are in beautiful northern Minnesota, ready for Christmas! Just when we had visions of gardening dancing in our heads, we got socked with about 20 inches of white stuff. Steve Grotnes just came and plowed me out; Steve Jensen spent the weekend in the cities at a continuning ed course and with Melody and family totally oblivious to the storm!

We are getting our revenge next Mon. when we fly to Orlando to check out the sun, and Steve has more continuing ed. (how much more of this a P.T. needs, i don't know but i think he should continue to get it in places like Hawaii, FL, California, etc. Maybe Europe...and i just go along...for quality control purposes and to make sure the accomodations are condusive to excellent memory retention.)

Anyway now that i'm plowed out i better get to work. As Steve's secretary i need to contact people to tell them he won't be in today. I'm thinking the 45 min. drive will be a little over an hour today.

OH! Bennie and Mary Ann, we will be in Daytona on April 16 & 17...we plan to go to the Kennedy Space Center and a national seashore beach, and are open to suggestions.....any chance of meeting for dinner one night?

love to all

oh i forgot to tell you that i would have posted this yesterday but we have satelite internet and the snow was coming down so thick that there was no service. I lifted my window washing pole to the dish up there on the roof this morning and brushed off the snow so now we're good to go. ...i just wanted to let you all know that because i need all the pity you can dish out! I don't know why we're in love with this land--you summer visitors understand us crazy Minnesotans a bit....
