A 100 inches of Wisconsin Winter

This past Wisconsin winter of 2007-2008 was one for the ages. When I say one for the ages, I mean that we got dumped on for 100 inches of the fluffy white stuff, enough for anyone of any age. A "normal" Wisconsin winter gets about 40" of the fluffy white stuff. I refuse to call the fluffy white stuff by its given name in fear that the mere mention of the fluffy white stuff’s real name may result in us in Wisconsin in getting more. This winter got so bad, that I went to my local Sears and bought a $700 fluffy white stuff blower out of fear of the next storm that was forecasted to come the next day. Much to my liking I actually used the fluffy white stuff blower the following two days to remove almost 15 inches of fluffy white stuff from my driveway. Now I have the pleasure of staring at the fluffy white stuff blower all summer when sits there useless. Thank goodness our residential lot doesn’t have a sidewalk. A 100” of the fluffy white stuff multiplied by the width and length of a sidewalk would probably equal to around 57 cubic yards of total fluffy white stuff removed for the entire winter. We nearly ran out of room to put store the fluffy white stuff on our property. At its highest point, the mounds of fluffy white stuff were taller than me. I think some commercial businesses in the area had several small mountain ranges form from all the fluffy white stuff being pushed into one corner of their parking lots. It is officially now Spring and the weather should turn for better. However one shall always remeber the Winter of 2007/2008 as being the worst in recorded hister of Wisconsin for snow ....oops!
