Fed Ex Gets Stuck In Snow

The last part of my recent ammunition order arrived today (.30-30 Winchester). The first part (12 gauge shotgun shells) arrived last week before the snows started.

It was delivered by Federal Express. That part went smoothly. But, the Federal Express truck got stuck in one foot of snow on my driveway. It took the driver about 20-30 minutes to free the truck and drive it out.

After he was gone, I got the Jeep out, put it in 4WD and headed to get my mail at the Flying J. It was cold outside with wind, so I put on my old ski mask (I've had the thing since 1973). A few drivers got a good chuckle seeing me driving the Jeep wearing it with my Stetson on my head.

Heading back home, I saw the county's snow plow out plowing the roads in our subdivision. Later, my next door neighbor plowed my driveway. Good thing, too. I am expecting UPS to deliver a package tomorrow. We wouldn't want that truck getting stuck in the driveway, do we?
