Trip to New Germany

Last weekend, Juliano and I ventured back to the cabin. The storm that hit us, threw a ton of snow on the Alleghenies as well. My uncle plowed our road to the cabin and we all made it back successfully! The depth of the snow made it impossible to even take a walk.

Valentine's Day Blizzard

We had quite a snow storm in Cleveland over the last 2 days. The storm dumped nearly 2 feet of snow on us! Juliano ventured out to shovel on Wednesday afternoon. He quickly realized the task was daunting. And we had to call in the Grecos. Those of you that do not know the Grecos need to picture two guys that will do anything for you at any time of the day. Sure, you have to put up with a little lip from them, but they get the job done. Last Spring, in less than 15 minutes, I watched these two carry 15 cement boards up 2 flights of stairs and then proceed to carry a cast iron tub out of our bathroom. They're unreal.

The Grecos arrived around 5:30 and within 30 minutes, our driveway was clear. And then they did the sidewalk!! Juliano and I cannot thank them enough for helping us out.

Note below that Boogers Greco wore a pair of gold lamay pants while shoveling.

Happy Groundhog Day

Today, the groundhog named Phil did NOT see his shadow in Punxatawney, Pennsylvania. This means Spring is just around the corner! Bring it on.

The Museum was kind enough to allow me to adorn a stuffed groundhog for our main lobby. I made her a top hat and a sign letting today's visitors know that Spring will be here soon. Hard to believe since it's 5 degrees outside right now.
