Few issues make me extra homesick than a giant snowstorm “again east.” Shout out to Sterling, my hometown, which made large information for receiving probably the most snowfall in the entire area over the last storm.
In Seattle, we simply emerged from a two-week lengthy chilly snap, in what had already been a chilly, dry winter. These days of brilliant blue skies and temps within the 20s-30s jogged my memory of chilly, crisp New England winters—extremely uncommon round right here. Usually, the winters are drizzly at finest, if not downright wet, whereas the cloud cowl acts as insulation and retains the air at a reasonably average temperature. It’s been two years since we had any snow in any respect, so I discover myself getting wistful for a ravishing snowscape, and for an opportunity to shovel snow.
That was at all times my favourite out of doors chore, and I miss it. If I weren’t on the IL, I’d supply to come back shovel some fortunate reader’s driveway, patio, pathway, automotive, no matter you bought. Maintain me in thoughts for subsequent yr. I’ll decide up Dunkies on the way in which from the airport, shovel snow all day, and discuss Sox with you into the evening. [Wait, did I just hit on an idea for our very first OTM raffle?! Auction? There’s something here, I swear.]
Good luck, my New England brothers and sisters, as you dig out from the most recent.
