I left California one sunny day (February 3rd) to help move my father from an independent living apartment into an assisted living one in the same complex in Frederick, Maryland. I stayed with my sister who lives in the area (and who was also helping with the move.)
My sister has a theory that when I travel in the winter it snows where she is. (This is due to a long history of "coincidental" snow storms when I traveled.) Well, I out did myself this time. Two storms of 30 inches and then 20 inches came through. As I write this I am scheduled on a flight out in the morning, but at present all airports in the area are closed.
So, to date I have shoveled 50 inches of snow from her driveway. I don't think I have seen that much snow at one time since I was stuck in Buffalo, New York on a business trip back in the 1970's. Unfortunately that "2 day" trip ended up lasting a week before I could leave. I've been here a week. My sister says she is tired of "bonding" with me!
