Blizzard

This was once a car.

This was once a street.
Snownami 2010
This was once a deck.
Snownami 2010
This was once a ruler.
Snownami 2010
This was once a parking space in front of a store.


Airport closed, malls closed, buses stopped, taxis stopped, plows stopped, cars stalled in the roads.  Oh, mother nature.  I apologize for making you so angry.  I hope you got this out of your system.  Christmas is coming soon and I can't handle anymore cancelled holiday plans.

It snowed for another two hours after this was posted, so we 
probably got just under 20inches of snow.

  4. Wow- just crazy! We had the crazy wind, but not much snow! At least you'll get a nice cardio workout digging yourself out? :)

  5. I wish I wish I wish for snow here in New Orleans...but not that much! People around here forget how to drive because NONE OF US have every had to drive in snow! If it snows even a few little flakes the city shuts down! Wow, that is amazing how much snow y'all got! Love it! Wish I could experience that.
