it is snowing since 2 days and is not stopping. on wednesday we tested to drive to the paved road. it worked nicely, some sliding. at the sheep barn the road was cleared by the comune. Alfredo thought they would have plowed to us. DooHH, on the way back - hills! Jon had to put the chains on. so that was the test run to get to the dentist the next day. the appointment was a week LATER! me and understanding italiana on the phone (but she had no time to listen to my repeating). so instead of drilling into me we went to the tire guy. a father/son business. the temperature on the fancy pellet stove standing in the middle of that huge warehouse was 7 degrees. it was warm, while turning like a chicken right next to this wonder of heater, made for a small living-room. we bought the tires he found somewhere (he had to drive away to get them) and got them onto the car. with new car-shoes and filled with good pasta from a new restaurant close to casa cuculo we made it home. we were so pleased how the car just pulled us through the snow back into the woods.
i was so happy about the missing out on dental torture that i built a BIG snowlady. the final touch up i saved for the next day.
she changed dramatically with another 20 cm snow on her. the eyes were closed and the pretty hair-due disappeared. the drive to the neighbors to get their house frost save showed: the tire do it - barely. since than we got more snow,
when something like this snow happened in woodward our amazing neighbor from down the road just drove his tractor into the driveway and cleared it all. DAVE !!! where are you???????. but this is too long of a stretch- at least 1 km.the forecast says it will be warmer next week . . .
with too much snow Jon's solo concert at the pub mirage down in the big valley might be canceled. who is shoveling themselves out to see Jon at 22.30? but he is practicing lots in the basement.
the other gig together with Flavia is in the old theater in Sant' Angelo in Pontano. that is on carneval saturday - should be much better weather.
daumen drücken!!!!!!!!!
