Most TV viewers on Palomar have a satellite dish. When we have this much snow, we often lose reception so you see ladders and a broom next to the roof where the dish is mounted. When reception is lost, people put on their jacket and mittens, leave the comfort of their warm cabin, go out in the storm, climb up the ladder and brush the snow off the dish with the broom hoping to not slip and fall. Here is a tip for you to avoid that drama:
Cover your dish with a white plastic trash bag. Snow doesn’t stick to the plastic so you still get TV reception.
(TV?!?? Personally I do not know how to turn the thing on and choose to create my own Reality Show!) I go play in snow now…
