Snowy snow snow. After completing my 3 assignments for the day in somewhat blizzardy conditions, I headed back to the office. Halfway there, Sandy called. I knew what it was. My chief photographer was calling to tell me we needed snow photos for the day. I sighed and turned the wheel to make my car travel in the shape of a "U."
I grumbled to myself. I thought of how I'd be getting out of my car and how I forgot my gloves.
Moments later I drove past a street with three men carrying shovels.
!
"Good," I thought to myself, "Three is good. The lone guy is a little difficult, because there aren't many levels to the photo sometimes... Unless it's a pretty blizzardy backdrop... which would be nice... but this'll do."
I talked to the three men for a while, they were shovelling a spot for their neighbor, Mitch, an ex-postman.
I talked to them for a little while about the newspaper and the crazy snow, mentioning the 10 feet or whatever that New York got. They seemed like nice guys, although one of them seemed to tell me in a very intense fashion how very good he was at putting in golf.
As I left I realized they were a bit low on shoveling supplies. One of them was using a garden shovel for snow. But hey, use what you got... besides... it was a bit Padgetty.
