Descent into ALL TIME RECORD SNOW for Boston!


Here we are after a little bit of Big Snow

Ruby helps to show our Street

Ruby smiles, and little do we know this is the beginning...

Another snowstorm later, our street partially shoveled at dusk

Strange hills of snow in our backyard appeared out of drifting

Here Ruby shows off our walking canyons - What a model...

It's snow angel time

The angel's ghost in snow

We got some sledding time in with our friend Emily

Whoa! That's a lotta snow

And then more Snow!

Somebody walking their dog in the middle of the storm!

Can barely see our neighbor's fence

Here we are at Fallon Field --- sledding is the only thing to do

At the end, some of our endless snowbanks


After the deluge, we did climb out of the snow --- and in the process we can claim to have survived the All TIME RECORD for snow fall in the city of Boston.  Yea!  Let's not do that again, but we have a marker for all of our collective efforts battling the elements.  In total, we had 108 inches to make the record, and this snow all happened within approximately a month of time.


We leave you with a night picture of all the snow on our street, oddly quiet and mounds abound.  The street lamps as low hanging stars, giving glow to the snow's edges.
