Blizzard 2010

This past week we had our first blizzard experience........ofcourse we move out here and our first winter they have their 1st blizzard since 1996! We got about 6" a week ago Saturday, the day after we moved into our new place (First image below is our new view off our patio). Then on Tuesday night it started snowing again and they expected winds 30-45 mph with blowing heavy snow until Wednesday night.....and they were right. We got around 20 inches of new snow Tuesday night through Wednesday night....we had whiteout conditions so they closed all roads to non-essential traffic, meaning work was closed for a snow emergency! So I (yes its Jeremy blogging this time) got to have a day off which mean lounging around in PJ's with my 2 favorite people and playing out in the snow! We got Brieann's snowboard out of storage so I could pull her down the parking lot streets of our complex on it which was quite a workout for me and a lot of fun for my wife! So the storm wasn't so bad, I got to stay home for a day and a half from work while the storm passed and they worked to clear the roads. Driving by parking lots and seeing 15-20 foot high snow piles stacked up is quite a sight to see for someone who never saw much snow in his life...let alone live in it......This snow will probably be around for awhile since it is soooooo cold the snow will not melt for a few months or until a warm streak hits the area. This storm gave me plenty of exercise, over 2.5 hours over 2 days of shoveling snow and clearing out both our cars....what a mess! Anyways, that was this past weeks adventure. More adventures to come!
