ORIGINAL: Bubbles5 Well I'm not sure bout what they are doing in Minn....but around here we have a salt shortage. When they plow we don't seem to get any salt/sand mixture. My driveway road is all plowed, but I still can't get up it. BTW..my mom was from Minn. Way up there by Thief River Falls and St. Hilaire. We used to go up there to visit, every summer. It was a 12 hour trip for us. Ah good old TRF! I went to college in Bemidji MN and my first roommate was from some itty bitty town up in the TRF area. She was valedictorian of her class. Granted her graduating class was like 12 people or something like that! My parents live about 2 hours East of Fargo ND. They KNOW snow. I don't know if there are any shortages of salt or sand tho. Here in my local county we are doing okay with that, but there is a county south of us that is seriously limiting their plowing and salting because of finances. My kids school bus driver refuses to travel a couple roads on our route in the winter and if the parents want their kids on the bus they have to take them out to the main road. Those back gravel roads get awfully slick if they are snow and ice covered! It's just wet and cold here. Wet and cold. Temp is 28 but figuring in the windchill it feels like about 20.
