Awoke yesterday to a blockage in the drainpipes, no fun at all. I attempted to clear the clog without success. Called a plumber who arrived in the early evening. It was cold and dark but he was able to locate the problem and clear it.
Shoveled out a section of the driveway so I could open the gate to allow the plumber in. It is a fairly long driveway. Then I had to clear an area around the gate so it could open. Searched everywhere for a snow shovel, it was in the outside closet, I really could have used it to get to the closet.
Snow boots would have helped, of course they are at my house. I hadn't expected this much snow and only had my walking shoes.
Here are a few pictures I took at sunrise this morning.
