We're all plowed here by now. Wind chills are brutal and the dogs, of course, are totally confused. Their usual "spots" are now covered with drifting snow which reaches way over their heads. Todd actually had to shovel a huge circle in the yard so they could go out. :)
We haven't been out since yesterday noon and are about to sit down for the pre-game and then the championship games.
I had to share though. You know how we all hear so much bad about human nature on the news. Well, every now and then, you hear a story which shows just how giving people can be. Remember my post yesterday about the state of Lincoln field for the Eagles game? More than 750 unpaid volunteers worked ALL NIGHT to shovel out the stadium. I can't even imagine what that must have been like in those brutal wind chills. They did a phenomenal job, as you'll see on the TV today. All of the fans at the game owe them big-time. If it had been up to Jeff Lurie, the Eagles owner, the fans who couldn't afford the luxury boxes would have been allowed to get frostbite. He's not the most generous of team owners, to say the least. :(
I'm not an Eagles fan, to be honest, so good luck to all the LCTers who have teams in the games today!!!!
Staying warm and safe and hoping all of the others affected by the storm are able to do the same.
