The Blizzard of 2009 - Report I

We here at Squeakerpants.com have been watching the snow fall for going on thirty hours, as of Saturday night. As of this posting it is still falling [Saturday at 6:00 pm].

Shortly after I started this post, the power started to flicker. We lost power Saturday night through Sunday afternoon. Before that we explored the snow a bit. Strictly speaking, the Daddy person had already played in the snow. His beloved Volvo couldn't handle the mix of gridlock and snow, so he spent Friday night at a hotel, then got a ride as close to the house as possible and jogged remaining 3 miles home in the snow.



The men spent yesterday digging out, though it will still be a while before the cars can be used again. After we get some work done this morning, we will take Squeaker out to try a luge run we created with my kayak.

Look for some movies and more detail this weekend.
