Nope unfortunately today is not the day to go to the Lake. The blizzard came through town here and the roads are closed in and out of town. Most businesses have shut down including the doctors offices. I guess I won't be able to make my doctor's appointment today as they won't be open. The only good thing is right now it is not snowing out. It was snowing and blowing like mad yesterday, when I went to let my dogs out yesterday I had a hard time with the door and the wind blowing some snow in the house.

Oh dear, that sounds pretty bad. I hope the snow doesn't hang around for too long.

@jaboUK I just had a call from a friend in town who says a lot of the businesses are still shut down and the Freeways are blocked so no one can go out or come in yet.

How much snow did you finally get. You are in Minnesota right? My mom is originally from Minnesota.

@fishtiger58 I will have to look that up on the map as I don't know Duluth or Cloquet, I am in another part of the State and I understand it was about 14 inches and with the blowing the drifts are much higher.

@TiarasOceanView Well it will not melt anytime soon as it is snowing heavily here again and doesn't look too good outside.

Those conditions are hard to deal with. I can't imagine seeing those conditions are being in them. I hope it gets better.

sounds like a good day to put a fire in the fire place and curl up on the couch and watch tv or read a book..
