As promised, we got a blizzard last night and today. All the snow we should have gotten spred out this winter came at once. Truthfully, I have seen this much snow come down in Cleveland. Several times. But - the winds (which is what makes it a blizzard as opposed to a winter storm) have caused some dramatic drifting, so - I took some pictures on our outing to get breakfast this morning.


View up 11th St from my bedroom window (it's in focus - just the whiteout making it look fuzzy).


From the living room window, a guy shoveling in front of Russo's in whiteout so bad it looks like a picture of the Loch Ness monster.


What we saw at our door when we got downstairs to go to breakfast. Luckily I still have my garden spade so I could clear it.


Looking down 8th Ave outside Two Little Red Hens bakery, where hot cider and a fresh cinnamon roll made a perfect snowday breakfast.


Patrick in the snow on 12th St.


Me in the same place.


The cars on 12th were really drifted over. If you think this one's bad...


...umm... I think there's a car under there.


And wow, if you think our door was bad, I'm glad I don't live in a basement apartment. |
