Oh my goodness did we get some snow yesterday and today.





Sorry about the mostly terrible shots - most of these were taken from inside because it's been INCREDIBLY cold out. We went out in our snowshoes today and did a walk around the pond.

I was supposed to have a dentist appointment this morning. Hilarity ensued.
8:00 AM: The office (nominally) opens.
8:00: I get a text AND an email cheerfully reminding me that I have an appointment at 9.
8:01: I phone the office. No one picks up, so I leave a voice mail cancelling.
8:18: My phone rings with an unknown number in Arlington VT. I'm bored so I answer it. It's one of the employees, who resourcefully took the appointment list home before the snow started, calling to let me know the office is closed today.

Dear makers of automated text and email systems, I HAVE A SUGGESTION. Howzabout you make a feature that replaces the appointment reminder with "WE ARE CLOSED TODAY PLEASE DO NOT COME IN".
