Well Grandma Lu and Grandma B knew exactly what a blizzard was like. It was a really bad snow storm and lots of wind. Sometimes the snow and ice would break the power lines and that would make the power go out. They started getting everyone their hats and coats and mittens and told the parents what was going to happen.
Before they could get out the door, Mrs. Liz called and said, "If any of you have a chance to stop by the grocery store and are headed out my way, would you stop and get some groceries for me? My husband is snowed in at work and can't get home until the roads get plowed. We didn't know that this storm was going to be so bad." Of course, they assured her that they would do just that.

Well, there were no arguments now. They were on a mission to help others. That's just what we do, don't we?

When everyone was safely in their cars, Marlee's daddy put ice melt on the steps, but suggested that Marleewood should be closed for a day or two to make sure no one had an accident....again.
Grandma Lu and several others went to the store.
The store lady was very nice and helped everyone find things that Mrs. Liz would need for her family.
Everyone picked up things that they would need at their homes too.
Hopefully everyone would make it to Mrs. Liz's house safely and back home again before the big blizzard hit Marlee's small home town.
I sure would like to know what Aunt Nat and Natalie talked about on the way to Mrs. Liz's house. lol
