TONS of snow
The sun shone all day yesterday, and temps were well above freezing. So a good portion of the snow melted. Today it's supposed to be sunny again and even warmer (50s!!), so I'm guessing (hoping) the rest will melt. Overall the docks made it just fine in the snow. Had the crew not shoveled those roofs, though, who knows? A couple of the older ones were really sitting low with all that extra weight on them. Speaking of weight, Tim did a little calculating, and he figured they shoveled 65 tons of snow -- or 130,000 pounds!! Wow! I know, it doesn't sound believable. But numbers are his forté. So I'd say that's pretty darn accurate. And they didn't even shovel all the roofs -- they didn't touch the 200, 500 or 800 docks. And on the roofs they did shovel... they only pushed about 8 feet off each side. So just think how many more tons were still up there! Wow!
