We ended up just .1 inch shy of tying our all time largest snowfall in NYC at 27.8 inches. We hunkered down with movies, books and a blazing fireplace. Actually was quite fun. Beautiful day today, sunny and warming. Took a nice walk around the neighborhood to watch all the folks with cars (we don't have one) shoveling them out. Guess where they threw the snow? The nice clean streets!

The snow has come and gone here: 2-3' (feet) across the metro DC/Baltimore area when it ended. The fun of digging out has started! No telling when the plow contractor will be coming to do our street.
I found earlier that the library will be closed tomorrow so I won't have to go to work.

Well, my parents did not lose power so that's good. I think they got 17 inches but the snow drift in some areas was waist deep. They have a snow blower so clearing the driveway wasn't too bad, but the roads didn't get plowed until Sunday evening so they were still stuck at home until then.

It snowed a little yesterday morning, but it melted by the afternoon.
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!
