IT'S A SNOW DAY




Well it appears that most of you fellow bloggers in Virginia have the day off, I know that I am off but Al might still be working. I haven't been out in the snow this morning but just looking out the window it appears that we have about 3 inches of snow here in Colonial Heights. It looks like the snow will stop here in CH in the next couple of hours however it is going to be very cold and windy the rest if the day with high around freezing and its not going to make it to but 36 tomorrow. This snow is not good at all for baseball practice because we probably won't be able to get back on the field until sometime next week and we have regular season game next Friday and we need to practice. Kyle Busch won yesterdays Nascar race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway which is also his hometown track, next weeks race will be down in Scott's neck of the woods in Hampton, Georgia. I just checked the Virginia Power website and there are about 125,000 people in state without power, I wouldn't want to be working for the power company on a day like this. Also this morning Mavis is scheduled for surgery at Henrico Doctors Hospital so keep her in your thoughts today. MICKEY

i'm here at work slugging away!!! i can't believe the rest of the world stops for a little bit of snow!

in case anybody wants to know the main roads are not bad here in the heights, secondary roads are passable if you use common sense. the problem might come in when you come upon somebody who is not using common sense!!! it happens!!!

hope things go well for auntie today!! i noticed on my way in that her car was gone so i assume she's still on schedule!!!
