Toon & text by John Auchter
It appears the snow has finally stopped falling here in West Michigan. In a day or two it is supposed to turn reasonably warm enough for me to attend to the non-priority snow removal issues — the roof, patios, walkways. Before the rains come. And then the next freeze cycle. Oy!
In the meantime, the driveway and the front walk aren’t gonna clear themselves. This has been proven out over and over this week. If you need me, I’ll be outside.
John Auchter draws cartoons. Lots and lots of them. You can find them at his incredibly popular website auchtoon.com. You can also find his stuff on Michigan Public Radio’s website under Opinion.
Yeah, Man. Today (Monday), does all that snow-removal effort seem wasted? And, doesn’t that remaining snow on the road edges look ugly, with all the black dirt on it? Winter Wonderland.
I hear you. Last week Michigan was cold but beautiful. Today is is warm but really ugly.
Never boring.
Every time I look out and see a fresh blanket of “Damn Yankee Cotton,” brain cell #3 reminds me, “No alligators, no big snakes, no tarantulas, no scorpions.” This is a good thing.
