Blizzard 2013

The Blizzard of 2013 came to Massachusetts on Friday and Saturday and dumped between 2 and 3 feet of snow on us in less than 24 hours.  They expected us to lose power, but, we were lucky and that didn't happen.

Kristen, on the other hand, was subject to some frustration as she was stuck at work for 24 hours as other nurses were unable to get into work.

 Due to the 60 mph winds, snow drifted up against the house and made drifts that were over 6 ft high.  It drifted up against the house, trees and our garage doors.  It even piled up on the doorknob as you could see here when I opened the door in the morning.
 Here was one view of the pile in front of the garage door.  The perspective is lacking, but it at least gives a hint of the snow up against the house.

The front of the house is a winter wonderland.  Certianly not conducive to soccer despite the net still being out.
This was the parking lot at Kristen's work when we picked her up.  It gives you an idea of what she would have been dealing with if we hadn't dropped her off and picked her up.
