Shack Wacky Baltimore Neighborhood Freed by a Bobcat!

Yesterday was my normal work out day at the gym. But in case you have been on another planet, you know we are in the midst of yet another blizzard. And My Street is Not Even Plowed! Baltimore is Not Just for the Birds!

We were reminded to keep generators clear of snow...ok guess that is one of my assignments. After all...how much bird and squirrel watching can one do? Lots... Aren't these critters wonderful?

Greed.....When Enough is NOT Enough

The "Mrs" in the blizzard!

Shovel that helped with the lunges

Part of my exercise training is squats and lunges and they came in handy. No way could I walk under the house eaves...that was all ice. How do I get all the way to the opposite side where the generator is located? Here's how.. I removed one big shovel of snow to step in, used the shovel as a crutch, dug the next big hole and took another step..repeating until I made it all the way around. I cleared the snow off the generator and returned in my own "footsteps" each one a huge lunge. Now that's what I call a great workout.

Came back in and emailed Johnny, my personal trainer, thanking him for keeping me in such good shape! With a Little Help from His Friends - An Ironman Lesson

We didn't get plowed until Tuesday night when this other critter called a Bobcat cleared our street. A sight to behold the pushing, the shoving, the backing, the turning and... in about an hour our "shack wacky" neighborhood was open....but too late to go out, the next snowfall blizzard was already here.
