Well, almost a River Day anyway. We did celebrate the holiday this week, and the only thing missing was the...river. And the fire. But other than that, it was still National River Day. Believe it or not, we actually postponed last week's holiday, and nearly did this week. The are was hit pretty hard over the last week or so with 2 different winter storms, each dumping at least a foot of snow on us. We decided (probably wisely) to stay a little closer to home until everything clears up a little.
At any rate, we ended up spending the evening on Franklin Ave; part at my house (or driveway anyway) and the rest at Jay's. Ted and Pat also made it out. Tim wasn't able to make it this week, and for some reason, we didn't see Freddy either.
The first part of the afternoon was spent digging out my driveway to get the car out. We spent just over an hour doing what would have taken me hours to do by myself. I am thankful for my fellow Rivertarians! I don't know if the photos do it justice, but we cleared the whole thing; about 35 feet long, and 2 plus feet deep.
After the work was done, we congregated at Jay's to continue the evening, a good part of which was throwing darts, listening to music, and just generally BS'ing for several hours.
We may not have been able to get to the river, but we had a great River Day anyway!
