The Blizzard of '07




We woke up this morning with about 2-3 inches of snow on the ground and it's been steadily snowing all day due to a noreaster we're experiencing. It's blowing pretty hard and laying a nice blanket of snow on the campus. As I write this at nearly 3PM, we have about 6-8 inches on the ground and it's not supposed to stop until midnight. It's making for some beautiful sledding weather if you can deal with being pelted by ice and snow in your face, but it's a downer for those wanting to go out for Valentine's Day.


As a result, Erin and I had to cancel our V-Day plans to eat lunch at a really cool chocolate factory/restaurant, Burdick's, and we're grilling steaks instead. Yes, you'd be right if you are thinking about how it's possible to grill in a blizzard , but I'm stubborn and I likes me beef.

just a small hint that i was told
today from a former resident of
new hampshire----keep the snow
shovels inside the building or
house,,,never know when you may have to dig yourself out the door.

Snow shovels -- humbug! My Mom always said that when she retired she was going to strap a snow shovel to the roof of her car and start south. When someone stopped her to ask what it was, she was going to pull over and live there.
