It snowed... a lot.

Okay, so I think although the result of the storm was only about a foot of snow, the fact that it snowed for a day and a half continually at the same pace was pretty astounding. While at first the snow fall was pretty and enchanting, the continuation of it eventually just became monotonous and annoying.

The fun part of all of this is now trudging through badly (if at all) shoveled sidewalks and sinking our boots unsuspectingly into vast puddles of melted snow at the curves' edges as we attempt to cross streets. In such street in which cars are too busy "trying to drive safely" in the slushy streets to actually watch for wet booted pedestrians crossing the street (in the designated crosswalks). Oh, how I love winter.
