Digging out

This is Canada and so Rustle and hockey rolls on.

I had to choose my boots this morning if I wanted my warmest boots or my tallest boots. I took the warmest ones, though I am not sure that was the best decision, it was ok.
The snow was knee deep (over my boots) in my driveway but when I got to the street it was ok. Some snowbanks were up to my head on Princess St. There were no sidewalks cleared so I walked on the road (sometimes the roads weren't plowed). I walked on side streets where I could to try to avoid cars. There weren't a lot of cars on the road but there were enough on the main roads to make them dangerous for pedestrians.

After Rustle, the city was on its way to digging out and I could mostly walk on sidewalks. Many roads were so plowed down that it was slippery because the snow was packed down that it made an ice sheet.

The 401 recovered and Whitby arrived for the game tonight.
