Blizzards. Love 'em or Hate 'em?


Well, it’s arrived.  The Blizzard for the next generation.  Now our children can have a flavor of ourBlizzard of ’78.  They can see a bit of what we felt ‘lo those many years ago.  I was a child at the time, and I remember feeling like school was shut down FOREVER.  Time plays tricks on us, however, and I have now come to realize that school was probably not shut down forever.  But, at the time, it did feel like it. 
The clock isn’t really ticking according to Big Ben anyway,  but moves faster or slower depending on where WE are.  And I guess that’s the case with me and my recollections of the Blizzard of ’78.
