I do not blame you. We are getting far enough in March that if we get any snow, it will melt within a day. We picked up a solid inch or two Monday morning around 6-8. Plows were hitting the roads and parking lots. The snow was all melted by late morning. I have a small electric snowblower that I used it twice this winter and could have used it a 3rd time but decided to shovel.

I couldn't put up with it any longer and went to bed.

Wasn't sure what I would find when I logged on tonight.
