Late Season Blizzard Options

The early part of the week was beautiful.  Sunny, temps in the mid to upper 60s.  I got in some good long hikes in training for the UK trip.  I was in shirtsleeves and was a bit warm at that.

And mid week....this.

I guess the only slightly happy individual in Wisconsin right now might be the bird at our feeder.  He's happy I filled it one last time.
When you get a late blizzard there are options to consider.  

1. Command it to Melt!  This is easier than getting out the snow shovel one last time.  It is also quite satisfying, as delusions so often are, in particular because the heated up streets and sidewalks will emerge first.

2. Make snowmen.  And dinosaurs, forts etc.  An impermanent art form...think of it as being Banksy working with sidewalk chalk.  But rolling a single ball along the sidewalk path will suffice for the day or two it takes for option One to take effect.

3. Just plow it.  Sometimes your Civic Duty remains a duty even when it makes little sense.  Besides, it is always best to run the snowblower tank down to empty for off season storage.  There can't be another one of these rolling at us out of Canada.

Can there?
