I think we've since had worst storms than this one but froma child's perspective, it was epic. I even think we may have had TWO days off from school.
ReplyDeleteTwo days yes I remember that!
ReplyDeleteI was 9 yrs old and there was a drift to the top of my mother's studio roof. I got a ladder and climbed on the roof then jumped into the drift over and over. BUT then I got stuck and couldn't climb out. My Mom came and pulled me out but I lost my boots and we couldn't find them!
ReplyDeleteI lost my boots jumping from the roof of our shed into a drift over and over. My Mom had to dig me out.
