Blizzard of '22 Saturday

Got a lot of snow this past Saturday, about two feet here. We were able to dig out our grill and fire it up, but we lost enthusiasm due to the high winds and didn't end up cooking anything on the grill.




Other doors, the mailbox and driveway remained socked in.  I only dug out one porch door for the dog to do his business. The wind was really howling and swept off half the side yard for me (down to the grass!), so he had a place to go without any need for me to create a big clearing for him. No need to go anywhere in vehicles today, so the driveway and front walks will await snowblower on another day.  Friends nearer Cape Cod lost power for five hours but we were fine here.

The family mostly stayed inside the house, read books and played card games, which was a nice relaxing kind of day.  We got tired of cards after a while and watched Minority Report, which is a modern feeling Tom Cruise scifi movie.  We were suprised to learn that his last name isn't Cruise and this movie is twenty years old!
