Blizzard fun and such

Dec 21, 2006 17:29

So, we were supposed to get 5-8 inches yesterday, 4-6 last night, and 1-3 today. I think they got todays right. But we got over 2 feet of snow.
It's insane.
So today I tried to go out to the barn, because I haven't seen Coosh in 3 daysish. I decided beforehand that if the mountainish road thing that leads up to the barn looked too snow covered still, I wouldn't try it. So, I get there, it does indeed look awful, so I decided to just turn around. I got stuck. barely off of the road i got stuck. Tried for a while to get out myself. Then I tried calling towing companies, of course everyone is completly booked (if thats even the right word for it) for the next like 5 days because well, it was a blizzard. So i sat down and I prayed, and just as I started praying I see some people coming down the hill. I walked up and met them about half way, and they were willing to help. So, they pushed while I put in reverse, and we were able to get out. I wish I had had something to give to them, but I had no cash on me unfortunately. I was so grateful. God Bless good samaritans.

I made it back to the apartment building without much difficultly, and trying to pull in I of course get stuck again because it is a very awkward bump to get into it. its such a slant that even on perfectly clear ground, you have to go 5 miles an hour in an type of vehicle unless you want to scrape your front bumper and undercarriage. AND with the snow plows going by, they push the snow all to one side, which makes this huge mound. So, my front wheels were on top of the way too steep ramplikething, and my back wheels were on the mound of snow. Fun fun fun. I managed to get out of that situation with some manuevering, not sure how exactly. Parked in a spot, basically on top of the snow, and went inside.

So yeah, I def had more than enough excitement for today so far....

Of course, Coosh ran out of grain yesterday, so I just hope that they have been feeding him Joder grain, and that I will be able to get out there tomorrow... Because I absolutely need to refill his grain tomorrow, or else he basically won't have grain for the next month =\.
