I know you have probably been worried. I mean the blizzard conditions threatening the south (Atlanta) have probably made global media. Wanted to let you know that we have survived. The storm has caused a huge run on the staples: milk, bread, and eggs. Don’t even try going to the market, you’ll be forced to go for the egg white liquid or try the vinegar and baking soda option. (I would not recommend trying to scramble that vinegar and backing soda solution…don’t ask me how I know.) We are holed up with makings for chili, tacos, and lots of snacks.
Now I’m going to warn you that the pictures below may be a little disturbing. They are filled with vicious amounts of ice and snow. This literally stops Atlanta in its tracks. I can finally say I am able to run with the big boys in Portland (both Maine and Oregon), Denver and Fairbanks. Hey Richard, do you think I can qualify for the Polar Bear Club??
Absolutely! Three rides with video of at least three minutes of riding on two or three wheels at a starting temperature of below freezing.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of snow....
hmm.... below freezing.... today started at 15° and went as high as 28°. Maybe should have tried...
DeleteI know!! Isn't it deep? we thought we may have to get out The snow shovel. he he
So glad you survived. Sounds like Atlanta reacts about like they do around here. I bet schools were closed because of the predictions.
ReplyDeleteWe managed to get almost 4 inches of snow yesterday and everything was closing and they urged folks not to leave the house since the police couldn't keep up with the accidents and chains were required on I-5.
I also liken it to the single raindrop in Socal. Apocalyptic. And yes, schools released early. How are you surviving your snowfall? Thinking of the Polar Bear Challenge? TW would be great!
DeleteDisturbing indeed. Thanks for the fair warning. Glad you survived ;-)
ReplyDeleteHe he. Thank you! Nothing like yours. But I have to make fun of Atlanta.
DeleteFrom what I hear, that's plenty of snow to lock up Atlanta.....you guys get icy conditions pretty easily apparently. I'll stick with Denver snow, nice and fluffy....this last time anyways.
ReplyDeleteYep. Even a hint of snow or ice brings out the worry. I'd stink with Denver and Scarlet too. ☺
