What a crazy snow storm we had on the East Coast! I have been shoveling snow all day (the day after)!! Here is a video clip I made.
It is a bad video, I was hoping that the snowflakes would show up better. I am kind of new to the video thing. The cats didn’t like the snow either, lol!

Well for around here, yes!! This kind of snow is rare for Virginia and North Carolina. The snow rolled into our area this am and it has been hanging around all day. Yikes, we even made the national news! Don’t get me wrong we do get snow over the course of a year but it usually doesn’t amount to much.
I already brushed a lot of the snow off the cars because if it starts to melt it might be much harder to move.
This snowfall could even make the garden grow better come spring.
Getting aid to the Haiti earthquake victims sure seemed to take quite a while. I have always been amazed that the news people could get to a devastated location so quickly. Even when Katrina hit the media were johnny on the spot!
What I don’t understand is that if the news people can get to a stricken area pretty quickly how come they cannot take some supplies, like water, to the victims too? Or do they?
I mean is there a regulation that says Broadcasters can’t give out supplies while they are out and about doing their reporting? Or do they?
I’m really curious. They report so I assume they have transportation. Is it possible that they do pass out what little they might be able to take with them?
I really appreciate the coverage these News agencies provide but can they or do they do a little more when it comes to providing a little assistance?
If the media folks do this, too. Can’t they toot their own horn about it once in a while?
