We got two straight days here, over a foot. My new barometer told me it was coming with about a 10 hour lead. First couple times my shoulder predicted the weather I took more Motrin thinking it was just pain from physical therapy but after four snows 8-10 hours after the ache starts I'm starting to learn to read the signs. I'm still not supposed to be using the arm yet but I had to dig out the past couple days so I could run into town. The 560 with Blizzaks handles a heavy dump like this with ease...easy on the gas and gentle with the brake. I see the surgeon on Tuesday for my 3 month checkup, I'll tell him I worked the arm, hopefully we won't get too PO'd.

It was kinda neat to see the snow plows out in a 4-truck formation tryig to keep the roads clear last night. Unfortunately they weren't on my side of the road.
