Snow day Monday and Tuesday


Being a Landscaper, we carry 'snow contracts' which allows us to go onto our regular maintenance sites and clear snow and ice for our clients. Monday, the Foreman were woken up by the Branch Managers at 1:00am told to report ASAP, Roger said...'it's sticking!' By 2am, we were in trucks with plows down, moving snow off of our sites and making things safe for staff who would be arriving in the morning. By noon,we were done...told to report at 4am Tuesday morning to apply salt to walkways and areas where melted snow refroze overnight. The news could not say enough about the 'black ice' issue we would be having, although...to me, it sounded like they kept saying 'black guys', which was mentioned on a local radio show this morning. Beware of 'black guys' this morning out on the roadways, hee hee. I shot one photo and one video...I should have gotten more!
