First Powder Day!!!!!!!!! (and adventures)

On Monday, we came up to sugar to spend the week. We had been driving for a while in the big snow storm, and by the time we got up, we had gotten about two feet of snow. We only had one worry. The driveway might not have been plowed. Sure enough, it wasn't. It was about 11:45 at night, and I had slept most of the way. There was a big pile of snow that the plow truck from the street had pushed up in to a big pile in front of the two feet of snow. There was no way we were ramming through it, that would be impossible. We decided to spend the night at a nearby inn, but there was no one there to get us a room, (because by now, it around 12:15am) so we called the plow guy, and he came and plowed the driveway for us. He had forgotten to. We got to the top of the driveway, and have to gear up, and shovel the front of the garage. We got in and slept for what was left of the night.

We got up and went skiing yesterday! It was the first powder day of the year, because the mountain had gotten 3 feet of snow. I got stuck on one if the trails that was not groomed, and couldn't lift my ski out of the snow, so I spent 5 minutes digging out my ski with my hands. It was very cold that day, but still fun.

We had another adventure yesterday night, where the power went out, and the garage door opener I guess is not hooked up to the generator. We had to go down to the realty office to see if they still had a house key to our house. Of course, they didn't. But, they did help us find the number to the electric company, which took much longer than it should have. We finally called them, and they said they thought it was back on. We crossed our fingers, and hoped they were right. They were right, so we went inside and had dinner.

I hope everyone had better luck than we did, merry Christmas and happy new year!
