Snowed In

Posted in NE, MN on Dec 23, 2007

Well it’s a drifty, cold, and snowy day.
I barely made it up all the hills near my house to make the (usually) short trek to my parents’ place.
I’ve never had the “low traction” light come on so many times while driving.
The good news is that the drive home is (mostly) downhill.
The bad news is that it’s still blowing snow like crazy (and still snowing fresh new stuff) so the plows haven’t been out yet.
I’m hoping they’ll make it out before I head home.

In local news, Opposable Thumbs bookstore (on Johnson St. inbetween 28th and 29th Aves NE) is closing.
I can’t find any photos of the store. I need to take one SOON before they take their sign down.
I’m extremely sad about this closing as the store hasn’t been around for long and it had extrememly reasonabe prices for old, out of print, first edition, and signed copies of often hard to find books.
I’ll miss you, Opposable Thumbs. I hope I can make it over there before you close - I can’t pass up 50% off books!
In the New Year, the location will be housed by Crafty Planet (which is currently located on the SW corner of Lowry Ave. and Stinson Blvd).
