Here in Boston Metro, we received about 2 inches of substantial powder from the winter storm that otherwise ravaged the East Coast. And while I feel bad for the mid-Atlantic folk who lack the infrastructure to deal with the heavy snowfall that they received… I don’t feel too bad. Because last winter we got three storms just like this one within two and a half weeks, and no melting in between. It was snow hell.
But I could have used a few more inches for my morning XC ski frolic, to cover the rocks that caught my skis on the downhills. Still, overall, unbeatable conditions! I went for 6 miles and rejoiced in every minute.
The day was sunny and warm. In the afternoon Little Boy and I had a great time sledding and otherwise acting silly at the playground.
