The Blizzard of 2016!

I remember the Blizzard of '96 like it was yesterday!  I was a Senior in high school and missed all of my exams due to school closings, it was awesome!  Well, here we are again 20 years later!  And we had Jonas, a huge snow storm that has been lingering around all weekend!  Of course, I had to work Friday (when it started!)  My friend with 4 wheel drive drove me so it was no big deal.  Today (Saturday), it has snowed an unbelievable amount!  The wind was crazy and snow came down heavy ALL DAY LONG.  So another problem occurred...I have to work the next two days!  Of course neither Sam or I have a 4 wheel drive vehicle (so smart being that I have to be at work under any weather circumstances!)  So today Sam trialed my van and took it around the neighborhood to see if it could get out.  And, drum roll please, it got stuck, and stuck, and stuck.  So thankful for a great neighbor who helped him out!  So unfortunately the verdict is that I can't get out of the neighborhood for work tomorrow.  Thankfully my neighbor with 4 wheel drive is taking me.  I am packing an overnight bag in case I have to spend the night for Monday.  We shall see.  However I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!  After Monday, I have a staycation for 10 days!  Woohoo!  Here are some pictures of today.  We stayed at home because, well, we couldn't go anywhere!!
