Left my friend's house in Trumbull around 2:00 last night. Roads weren't that bad. The biggest issue was the trees and wires down.

Got back to East Haven and was plowing the shop out by 3:30 after cutting through the corn field to get around a downed tree on the way to the shop. Plowed our driveway caught 2 hrs sleep then woke up again to go catch the snow before it went down the drain. Truck is away until the next freak storm now.

Time for another shameless plug....

If you need tree work give me a call (203) 464-4416

I know that at least down by me we've got a LOT of trees down as a result of the storm.

In New Haven county. And I'm referring to the UNITED STATES of America. Not you igloo dwellers.

PS: I think only Miles has a sled. We only have enough snow to use them maybe 4 months out of the year.
