the christmas blizzard of 2009.
once upon a christmas eve,
harmses flocked together at steve and judy's house
a music video was recorded in the backyard
radar reports were given hourly
lamps flickered during a showing of the movie up
a 13 hour power outage ensued
meals prevailed, thanks to judy's gas stove
pineapple chopped and guacamole made by candlelight
toilet flushing began again, thanks to the generator
an impromptu, a capella christmas concert performed in the living room
wild winds and deep, unplowed snow
26 people stranded at the farmhouse
emergency overnight stay
beds of blankets on the floor
a furnace break down, a fried refrigerator
a fireplace.. thank you, Lord
parker plumbing & heating makes housecalls on christmas day.. thank you, Lord
steve's sturdy truck chauffeured families to town and back
houses and cars half-buried
home again, fresh socks have never felt better
grant's new snowblower put to good use
total accumulation upwards of 20 inches of snow
a christmas to remember, and we all lived happily ever after
ps. more photos to come
