This morning was a morning when all plans went out the window because of the weather....
We were hit with an ice storm last night and its so slippery outside that the dogs cant keep upright on their morning walk!
On mornings like these the ice can freeze the doors of your car shut and you have to pound them open or sometimes use a hair dryer on a long extension cord to melt them free.
This is what the vehicle window looked like after I cleaned it!
crampons were dawned to sand the driveway.
Sand and salt wasn't enough so I spread ash from the wood stove down too!
My boots are covered from throwing ash!
It took about two hours in total to sand our driveway which is longer than a football field.
Part of that was spent prying the lid off the sand which was frozen shut and also breaking the ice off of the shed door which was frozen shut too.
Free at last!
