In 1978 I remember seeing the front page of the Boston Globe with cars stranded all along Rt. 128, caught in waves of snow. Hundreds spent the night in their cars. It was a horror show. I don't expect to spend the night sleeping in my car tonight, but we are readying for anywheres between 1-2 feet of snow, blizzard conditions, with periods of whiteouts. Oh, and close to hurricane winds. It's going to snow all day today and most of Saturday, ending in the evening. Just another winter weekend in Maine. The WORD for today is WHITE... can you say that? I know you can.
I'll catch you on the other side.
I'm sure that you stocked your larder, and I hope that it includes some chestnuts, too, so that you can have a cozy evening. Stay safe and stay warm.
ReplyDeletemay you not lose power, bird. stay safe.

ReplyDeleteSounds like a good time to stay warm and cozy at home!
ReplyDeleteStay safe and warm! It seems so unreal seen from here.. I wish you good luck!
ReplyDeleteNo more calm! Catch you on the other side: is that like in Heaven? As long as I don't lose power or have to drive, then I am in white (light, flully) heaven.
ReplyDeletegood luck! may you keep power and heat!
ReplyDeleteLong as your stockpiled, warm and able to stay inside and ride it out -- it can be a beautiful experience. -- barbara
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful pic of ice crystals - such a world is this! Stay warm . . .
ReplyDeleteTake good care of yourself and hunker down with an extra blankie!
ReplyDeleteI remember 1978. My daughter was just weeks old and the blizzard hit us in southern Ohio. Not a 1/2 mile from our home they found a semi buried in a snow drift when the Air Force Base brought in their runway snow blower to get the roads open to our town. The driver was safe, he somehow found the farm house that he happened to stop in front of, even without lights since the power was out. We were in the rural part of our county, we were isolated for a tad over a week. Somehow our road kept power on the whole time. Stay safe up there in Maine.
ReplyDeleteYou have my sympathy - I know what you are in for. Keep well!
ReplyDeleteDo stay warm and safe!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I know your houses are built to take it, We're getting hail right now, which greatly confuses the houses we have out here.
ReplyDeleteStay safe!
ReplyDeleteBiting cold...
ReplyDeleteGod bless you!
