IT'S BEEN A QUIET WEEK

It's been a quiet week in Lake Woe-Be-Gone. We dug out from the 10 inches of snow. (Nice to have a snowblower.) Now we are listening to weather reports of another storm on the way starting this afternoon. They are predicting snow over three days starting with 2 - 4 inches today. We used to take this stuff in stride. It is winter and it is Minnnesota. 10-12" of snow over three days used to be normal. Our Sunday company cancelled last weekend. We have friends invited for Friday night. Perhaps those plans will be scrapped too.
We are taking a Safe Driving After 55 class that started yesterday. We have a nice instructor who has lots of stories and encourages audience participation. I was wondering how he would fill 8 hours. I even imagined using one of those simulators like they do in high school.

At the stop sign he would look left; she would look right and announce, "ready on the right Cliff". Never failed to amuse me.
The snow is supposed to start this afternoon. The class is held about 12 miles from here. Maybe there will be tips on winter driving that Jon could pick up, or he could just listen to me.
PS. I never got the true answer to question #1. Couldn't hear it over the laughter to Jon's response.
