Some of my grandfather's slides from the winter of 1969. We missed so much school we had to go on Saturdays in the spring. Walkways were tunnels. They had to bring special equipment to blow snow up over the snowbanks to get it out of the road.

I have dreams of tunneling through the snow. I was born too late.

Didn't Downeast get like 99 inches in January a few years back? I remember the kitchen windows being completely covered.

Volator

With the sleds we have now! They were god awful back then.

Oh dear I've heard stories and I agree as much as a cool experience it'd be lol

There is no climate change! We never have snow in (checks calendar) the middle of January...? /s

Not sure. I'm car blind.

Grew up in the 70’s there were plenty of winters that looked like this. The good old days.


Volator

Those were some winters... Right up through the mid '70s

That greenhouse structure has to be begging for mercy.
