Got To the Post Office

Thanks to a neighbor with a plow, I was able to go down to the Flying J to get my mail at the post office inside. 

Today's snow was about 4-5 inches deep (which is the most we've received from one storm this season) and I wouldn't chance driving the Mustang in it.

But seeing that my neighbor plowed the snow from our road, I jumped into the Jeep and headed over to the post office.

I did manage to watch two John Wayne movies from the 1930s today, part of the John Wayne Collection DVD set. The first was Blue Steel (1934, Lone Star) and then Lawless Range (1935, Republic Pictures). In these movies, he sounded and delivered his dialog like the John Wayne we're all familiar with (compared to The Big Trail in 1929).

The snow will be staying on the ground for a while as it is now 27° outside. That's it for snowstorms this week until (maybe) Sunday.
