Minnesotans Welcomed Home By Piles Of Snow

By Keith

Here's Julee's version of arriving home:

"Greetings from the very cold wintry north!
Thankfully, we had an uneventful good trip home. Really good travel conditions.
We hit St.Paul about 4:30 PM Saturday [yesterday]. The temp had really started going down as we headed into St.Joseph, MO on Friday. Well it was 35 degrees, sunny, lite traffic. As we headed north out of St.Paul towards our home.......good grief!  deep snow everywhere......huge drifts. Our yard.....snow up over our shrubs in the front, about up to the bottom of our windows. We just were in shock!  Obviously, we left TX way too early! It truly did not look any different then it did when we left in Jan.
Tom had a tricky job getting the rig backed into our driveway [our road is only 33 ft. wide with woods right to the edge and lots of deep snow]. We made it. On the news they just said that this cold weather will slow down the snow/ice pack melt and therefore be a plus in the whole flood situation here in the north. See...there you go, there is always something good to come  out of everything if we look for it! 
Take care, thanks for you prayers, good wishes, etc. we appreciate it much.
love from Julee and Tom"
