I remember the Christmas Eve Blizzard of 1982
(From Local Newspaper, its amazing what you can find on the internet)
"On Christmas Eve, snow fell heavily on Denver, as everywhere in Colorado and it continued to fall
through December 25. High winds whipped snow into massive drifts over highways, cars, livestock, houses and streets. Travelers were stranded for days after giving up the fight to get anywhere. Schools were already closed for the holiday, so most people stayed exactly where they were and waited out the storm. The official tally was 23.8 inches. Some areas received a good deal more, closer to 29 inches."
My husband and I both worked the graveyard shift, it took us nearly 2 hours to get home that day, usually took 25 minutes. Made it home just in time before they closed traffic to just emergency vehicles. We spent 4 days in the house playing B17 Bomber (a new video game) with the kids and had a great time. We stayed in our pajamas the whole time. It is the only time we have ever had to dig ourselves out of our house, not in. Good memories ♥♥♥
Even though it's pretty chilly here today. Us Floridians are notorious for being wimps to the cold....I'm looking for a coat when it gets below 60!
