The result of the Blizzard, and why I need a vacation

So we ended up with about 22" of snow from the Blizzard of 2011.  This is me this morning running the snow blower (if you don't know what that is, God Bless You).  Clearing this much snow makes the vacation we start in less than two days that much more deserving!  Sue says that she's taking a picture of me running the snow blower along to remind us of what fun we're missing in Chicago.  With luck, O'Hare will catch up tomorrow and we'll be off at our scheduled time.
