I can't even imagine storm #1 let alone 14 storms!!! Thank God for _50 F. without any storms!!!!
The only snowstorm I remember vividly was when I was about 5 years old, and we drove to Anchorage during a winter snowstorm. Well, one of our tires went over the side of a cliff, and my dad did everything possible to try to get it up onto the road. My mom and I were praying for dear life, and she all of a sudden had the thought to use the jack, so my dad did, and managed to put us back on the road. Just as that happened, a snow truck came by and told us to come "thaw" out at the D.O.T. road maintenance building. We had hot chocolate and orange juice. After a number of hours, the storm settled down enough, and by following the snow plow, for a long distance, we finally made it to Anchorage.
I can remember for years saying to anybody who mentioned Anchorage that it was an awful place!! Lol!! I didn't even want to go there ever again. It wasn't until I was an adult and travelled there many times and came to the realization that Anchorage is absolutely beautiful!! It took a long time to get those awful, fear filled images out of my mind.
to those of you who have to deal with the snowstorms!!! And
to those of you who continue to live there!!!
