So, a friend pointed out that I really needed to get some photos up about the "historic" events that are taking place all around me. "Historic," yes, that is how he put it. Well, you can tell he has sold out and moved South as this is wild, but I don't know about historic. We are hearty folk up north here, and where 8 feet of snow would paralyze most areas, we are really business as usual, just business as usual under States of Emergency and such. We are business as usual, with one snow day, two two hour delays and one two hour early dismissal. We get by, even when we have to tunnel to our cars and scale small mountains to fetch the mail. We have been in a Lake Effect event, as the (tired!)news weather guys call it, since last Friday...same band, oscillating back and forth, like a fan, blowing fluff all over the lake shore, endlessly. It is tiring, but it is life. You can see it in everyone's windblown faces, and the hobbled gait of people who have spent WAY too much time shoveling out enough to even USE the snowblower. It has been interesting, exciting even, historic maybe as Oswego State did cancel classes for THREE DAYS, but you know, I have had enough. It can stop now - before I lose track of my house. If it was one story, I think I'd be a little nervous. Time will tell.
