Well, I got the car dug out. Yeah. Now, it has a dead battery. LOL. I expected that, hadn't started it in two weeks and with negative numbers showing on the thermometer it didn't stand a chance. Gonna have to get the charger off the fence and get her up. A couple more storms and it'll spend the rest of the winter where it is.
The next door neighbor that moved to the valley apparently showed up last night and tried to drive all the way to the house. It hadn't been cleared all winter and there had been some pretty good storms. The berm at the front of her driveway settled snow three feet high. Now, any idiot would have known that a Dodge van ain't gonna make it. She got over the berm which was hard packed and onto the soft stuff and just sank.
She lived here for 10 years, I just looked at her and asked what she was thinking. Well, she had her new boy friend with her. Seemed like a nice guy, but I don't think snow is his thing. She wanted me to pull her out. Nope, can't do it. I wasn't being a bitch, just no way I was going to put my vehicle at risk. She borrowed two shovels and finally dug it out. I gave her the phone number of a guy that could get in, but even he said it would take most of the day and the Bob-cat, no way the PU with plow could do it. She decided to leave the car at the road. Smart move!
The Stellar's Jays and Norther Flickers have been stopping buy for a quick meal. They had a little battle between them the other day. Looked like the Flicker had won, then the Jay went and got his buddy and the Flicker decided it wasn't worth it. LOL.
When I was shoveling the berm at the end of the driveway the other day, I wasn't paying attention and one of the dogs snuck out. I mean, I noticed he was there, it just didn't register that he was outside the gate. He stayed near, then some idiot woman in her car decides to stop rather than just drive by. All three dogs get excited and go to see if it's some one they know. If Jack hadn't already been out, I could have stopped it. So, this idiot woman opens her car door and lets the dogs in her car and baby talks to them about what sweet dogs they are. This is two terriers and a Labrador. Are you F'ing crazy Lady!!!
I was beyond pissed!! "Oh, I love dogs." Lady, just keep driving, honk at them, run over the dumb ass animals, but don't stop and let them in your car! Now they're going to try to get in every car they see. "oh, I love dogs." She really did keep saying that. Geez, REALLY, call some ones dogs and encourage them into your car when the owner is right there trying to stop them. "oh, I love dogs" REALLY????? Yeah, I really wanted to kill that woman.
So, today, open gate and if the dogs got with in 10 feet of the open gate they got scolded. Didn't take long for them to go back to, "oh, yeah, we don't go through gate."
