West Coast Snow Day

Another snowy day in paradise. We're just not used to this stuff. The guy trying to dig his car out by hand, well, he doesn't look so tough. There's a shovel by the door for all to use but genius-boy is using his bare hands and trying to back out of his parking spot no matter where the poor car lands. His buddy is helping to push the car. They make it out onto the street, And now he's floored it and back he goes into a tougher snowbank, his defeat. So off he walks, muttering under his breath. I think he's given up for today. But my amusement is not over. There's another idiot driver on the way. This one and his tiny white car have tried to park in the ditch. Now with all the snow, he didn't know but I can still hear him b*tch. A guy with a shovel across the street, ( at least someone is prepared) has wandered over to help him out. Just when he thought nobody cared. It's all amusing from this side of the pane. We west-coasters just don't have a clue how to deal with a foot of snow like the rest of the Canadians do. Rain has started and melting too, so eventually we'll all get out. But its been an amusing morning watching these islanders try to get about. 18/01/2020
