Blizzard 2013

In the nine months that we have been up in the Massachusetts, we have seen a lot of things. But I don't think anything will compare to the snowstorm we saw on February 8-9, 2013. It turned out to be the 5th highest snowfall for Boston, ever!! I am not sure where it ranked for Salem but we received 25 inches in about a 24 hour period. In a lot of spots the snow drifts were higher than that, as you can see in the photos below. This traveling adventure just keeps getting better and better!!

Well, we finally saw our first significant snowfall in our time up here in New England. Later this week, we are supposed to see our first single-digit temperatures. I'm starting to miss those warm Texas winters. Ha! But it is quite beautiful!!

 



First Snow of the Year

It's only the first week of November and last night we got blasted with a little snow storm. I might panic but this was to be explained as a nor'easter named Athena blasted the east coast and brought several inches of snow to the area. As I sit here typing, I can see most of it has melted off and we will see temps in the mid 60's on Monday. Whew!!
