[QUOTE="donna723, post: 675937, member: 1883"] Thing about getting marooned in the house for a week ... I have FOUR dogs and no fence so I have to take them outside on a leash! That wasn't happening! They might have made it cross the frozen porch and steps but I wouldn't! So for a whole week we were all stuck inside and I followed them around with the carpet shampooer - I had no choice! Then when it finally melted enough for me to get out, I slipped on a stubborn patch of ice by my car and broke my shoulder! But that was very unusual weather for this area. The temperatures go up and down and the two or three snows a year we do get, usually melt off in a day or two. But not last year! What's bad here too is that so many of the roads are winding and curvey. Some are cut in to the sides of hills where you have a solid rock "wall" on one side and a sheer dropoff in to the woods on the other. And when it snows, it will partially melt off of the road but not in the shady spots and that will refreeze to slick ice when the temps drop at night. [/QUOTE]
