Sn**maggedon

Every time someone mentions s**w I think of 2 times in my adult life. The most recent being the s**w in the place I am living at now ( unfortunatly !!!!) I was not living here then, but my daughter and at the time my grandson was two years old. Lot's of hills here and you cannot get good enough cell phone or internet access anyway but it was even worse then. Power was going off in people's homes and many stores, restaurants, gas stations and more. So no heat!!!!! Brrrrr!!!! My daughter would have to drive on the slippery roads that were blocked in some places by fallen trees. To get to a place where she could get reception on her phone to call me. A few times she even had to sleep in her car! Her ex came and got their son and they went in a hotel by where I lived. Also people were breaking into stores to get food they could eat without heating up! I told her then that is when it would be good to have an RV with heat and power from a generator or Solar or a house even. In February 2010 we were temporarily housed in a hotel while we were in between places and a blizzard came and was called "Sn**maggedon". It was in the Washington DC area, but mostly where we were near Dulles International Airport. During a 5 day period the airport received 46 inches of s**ow the worst the airport had since 1963. I had family that needed help because the snow was very heavy on their roof. So my son went over and shoveled off the roof! On his way back a car slid into his 4 wheel drive truck and totaled it!!!!!! But luckily no one was hurt. There were other people in the hotel that were complaining because the hotel staff were not clearing the snow fast enough! DUH!!!!!! I kept saying to people they are doing the best they can and besides even if they can when you get out on that road that was a hill by a lake, you will not go anywhere except maybe into that frozen lake! They would continue to complain that they had an appointment and I asked them, "You really think they are open?" They said," They will be, we have an appointment." LOL Some how we didn't lose power!!!! Have you ever been through a blizzard?
