The Weather Channel says it's suppose to snow in Vernon today so I wanted to get an early start home.  I went to Sam's Club and bought Alex Tolman a wedding gift and then went to Sheri's to wrap it.  While I was there Evan showed me his latest Lego project.
One of the sweetest boys on the planet.
The world of Legos is amazing.
I left town around 11 am.  No snow until I got to the top of the Rim and then there was quite a bit.  I stopped in Show Low at Walgreen's to fill a prescription and then on to Walmart to get groceries for the week.  Jared and Tricia will be here tomorrow.
It was snowing from Show Low in to Vernon.  I had no problems until I tried to go up the hill into our place.  My tires just kept spinning.  I called James and he said to back up and get a running start.  That didn't help.
Finally I called my neighbors the Crane's and they came to my rescue.  Chuck tried to drive my car but he had the same problem I did, no traction.  He got he four-wheeler and bladed the road but that didn't help either.  Finally Chuck got Kathy's Suburban and pulled me out.  Kathy and Chuck helped me unload my car and Chuck helped me turn on the water out at the pump house.  It is so wonderful to have such good neighbors!
Coming in to Payson.
Lots of clouds.
The road is covered with snow.
On the Rim.
Stuck at the bottom of the hill.
Chuck comes to the rescue.
The view from inside my car.
In spite of the cold, and the problem with getting stuck.  I still love the snow!  Thank goodness I had my new boots and a blanket in the car with me.  I told Tricia about getting stuck and she decided not to come until tomorrow.
