The Snow Must Go On
SECOND UPDATE: Due to many snow cancellations, the show has been extended until March 14th.
__________
FIRST UPDATE: Yet another 4-8" forecast for Sunday-Monday. I give up. Uncle.
__________
For those of you who were planning on joining me for the Wednesday night showing of The Glass Menagerie (for which I did the projection photos,) the show has been canceled. Kinda bummed, but whaddya gonna do?
If you are local, the reason is quite obvious: We received 33" of snow over the weekend. A second shot ofup to 20" up to 30" is falling as we speak. Yeesh.
Above is the view from my front door the first evening after the snow stopped. Well, the first half of it, anyway. After that first historic dump, we are referring to the next 20" as a dusting.

Hope you and your family are safe, and with tons of food in storage.. :)
Pick up a canoe now so you are ready for the Big Melt! Snow is nice, but....
I'm extremely jealous of your weather! I know it's probably a huge pain to deal with every year, but in Australia we have to travel in search of it.
Love those action sledding shots too :)
Well, well, now you'd be right at home here in S.Dak. The pile of snow at the end of my driveway is as high as my wife is tall!
That's a lot of snow yout guys are getting over there! Here in the north of germany we have the strongest winter since 30 years. in my blog I posted photos from beginning of January, thinking it was a rare occasion to take photos of snow... since then we got more than 40 centimeters (16') more of snow, when usually we have maybe one week of snow per year... this is how it looks at the moment
This last week makes me SO GLAD to be living in the San Francisco Bay Area. At least we never have to shovel our rain. :)
Some people think of even few inch of snow as a pain, but its just beautiful part of winter.
Though having 33+20" all around can really slow down life for a time...
Anyway, i can see in your photos, you were able to 'look at the bright side' of it - thats a good way of handling it! :-)))
What a great pity the show has been cancelled for tonight.Everyone involved must be so disappointed.The series of photos you took for the play are absolutely stunning and you have every reason to feel very proud. I particularly love the one of Laura adjusting the glass figures on the shelf. Her eyes are mesmerising and the detail in the strands of her hair and the little glass figures is exceptional. I'm sure it would be wonderful to see your photos projected as part of a live performance. I relly hope that you get the chance to attend on another night when the weather has improved some.
Welcome to how we talked about snow in upstate NY. When I started to think of 20 inches of snow as not a big deal is when I knew it was time to move south. I type this from NJ, next to a window with a ton of snow falling outside. I, obviously, did not go far enough south.
Dennis,
I know exactly what you're talking about. Living near Syracuse, 20 inches is a usual amount for a couple days.
Nice piles, David. Southeast of Pittsburgh we got 19 inches during the first storm 5 inches last night and its still falling! Digging Out
To everyone sharing the pain: Watch out for the plows! Our cars, being parked on the street, needed digging out again after they finally decided to go by!
Go figure, you are up to you nose in snow and in Canada (the great white north, eh!) we have above zero weather and all the snow in melting away. And at the Olympic venues (out west) they are trucking snow to the ski hills in an effort to save the Olympics.
And UPS hasn't delivered all week!
i took plenty of photos of the snow while i was trapped at home. i posted some on my blog, i'd love for you to check them out and give some feedback. thanks. keep it up.
