(26,343 posts)Not a moment too soon. We ran out of places to put the snow in the alley and I'm getting tired of pushing strangers out - but it's hard to say no when you're out there and someone is stuck.

(6,795 posts)There is freaking snow everywhere. I have been walking across the street to the store and there are no sidewalks and snowbanks everywhere and am gonna get hit soon.
I don't get it. There are about 5 hotels/motels/extended stays here on this corner and no freaking sidewalks. Doesn't anyone walk in Indiana?
You need to go to AZ for some Spring Training and enjoy the 80+ temps!

(26,343 posts)Of course, it was unseasonably cold and raining. LOL. The locals were all jumping for joy over the rain and were like - WTF?
We had dinner out on patios two nights and the kerosene heaters were in use.

(6,795 posts)Where did you eat?
Hassin Bin Sober
(26,343 posts)One was an old house (bungalow?) converted to a restaurant. I think it was a new place. We had all different kinds of Pizza........ Looking at the google machine I think it was Cibo.
The other place was newer or just remolded. In the same neighborhood, IIRC. It was a good sized bar (club?) with a big out door patio around the front and the restaurant was attached (or maybe immediately next door). on edit: It might have been a gay club - cause that's how we roll

(6,795 posts)Were you in PHX or a suburb?
Hassin Bin Sober
(26,343 posts)So wherever that place is.
There was a lot of construction going on so I go the impression it was close to downtown.
