Blizzard of 2011 at My Window! by Diane Ogden

So this is Little Gracie Allen in a head on search for a place to make a morning poddie!  That poddie ended up smack dab in the center of  this sidewalk obviously, like where else was there to go? 
This event occured at 9:00 a.m. February 2, 2011 and as it did occur my mind wondered to the newspaper man that "usually" enters the residence around 4:00 a.m. and considering I live in the "dog building," what residents may have attempted to help their dogs relieve themselves before 5:00 a.m. which is when I overheard the little man with his little toy truck clearing the walks. Did you ever notice that girls don't have boy toys when they grow up, you know like little baby bulldozers, and little baby Caterpillar type plows,  and so on.  I guess someone has to be grown up but its still not fair.  Back to my point?  Where did those dogs go before 5:00 a.m?  The garage? Could be! 
The bottom photo is my apartment just to the left of the front door behind that humongous drift.
