Digging Out

Things are warmer and soggier at Chez Szondy and the daughter and I made our first trip to town in over a week. Chez Szondy got off lightly with only a small tree and a couple of bushes crushed, but other haven't been so lucky, such as this farmer, whose steel shed was once an elegant curve and now, thanks to several tons of snow, a crumpled mass on top of a pair of tractors.

Even he did better than his neighbour who grows flowers under cover. His entire set of plastic green houses are now so many flattened tangles of plastic and aluminium.

Looks like the clean up is going to be more than taking care of a few broken branches, ditched cars and collapsed woodsheds.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
