Desperation

So, the apartment manager has called 10 vendors and no one has an available plow to clear out our complex parking lot. They also can't locate a snowblower in the entire county of Thurston. So, we're sort of stuck. They did say corporate was bringing down some de-icer and that should be here by this evening, and they'll put that behind everyone's car. Hmm.

In a flee of desperation, I tried shoveling. A little girl helped me. I felt like the penguins from Madagascar with their little plastic spoons hah. We were basically chipping at huge chunks of ice. The four inches next to the ground are just solid.

It doesn't look like that much, does it? Well... the top layer is all over here in a pile.

I don't know how it got there though if there are no plows? It doesn't make sense, does it? That, by the way, is a dumpster that is flat on the ground... that is all flat ground under the snow. Wild huh?

And this below, all of our bushes look like scoops of ice cream hah.

And because it's too cold outside, we brought the snow in. This was from the other day.
Heh
