Our street still wasn’t plowed earlier today, but enough people had driven up and down it to pack the snow down pretty well. The Mini has very little ground clearance but made it the 1/2 block to the nearest plowed street and we were free! We just went out for groceries and gas, but it was sure nice to get out of the neighborhood for a little while. Even though the big roads have been plowed there’s a lot of slush and ice all over the place.
Not long ago a plow finally came by. I can’t tell whether it moved any snow, but maybe the salt/sand will get some melting done before the next snow storm starts tomorrow.
Great shots, Isaac. Can’t tell you what a contrast they are to what we are experiencing. Spent most of the day stocking the shelves here, too. We are now ready to just enjoy. Cooked scallops for us all tonight….we have a good stock of AK seafood and Ben and I are planning a HI gathering trip maybe Wednesday and see if we can’t come up with some mahi. will post some photos soon. Stay warm. Love, Dad
Hope you find some good stuff – maybe some fresh coconuts? Looking forward to the photos of a warm place.
We’re surviving the blizzard pretty well so far. Not sure how we’re going to entertain Jon this weekend. The red line of the Metro is supposed to all be working again though, so maybe we can drive to Bethesda then take that down to the Mall. A lot of the museums have been closed, but it might be fun just to walk around and look at snowy buildings.
will you be posting more recent photos soon?
Maybe tomorrow – the snow’s almost gone now, there are just a bunch of dirty piles of it here and there. Looks like spring breakup in Alaska out there.
