You too, Christine! I see folks eat well at your house! Take care with the
shoveling. Here's hoping we all get some good pics tomorrow! Cheers,
Christine

I heard a report last night that there's a possibility Lake Shore
Drive could flood in places...!
We are expecting that storm to arrive in Boston tomorrow... today we
got 6-8 fluffy inches, in the first part of this 1, 2 punch. I just
came in from shoveling 18 inches of accumulated snow off the flat part
of our roof. Tomorrow we'll get up to another foot, but wetter, with
sleet & rain. Are we having fun yet?
I've laid in supplies for the duration, too. Pot of soup on the
stove, meatballs about to go in, a chicken on deck, wine to be
uncorked... the only difficulty I foresee is that we are down to only
2 extra rolls of t.p. Might have to start rationing, if the storms
don't let up...
Best of luck -- be safe!

It was expected to start at 3p, but it started a half hour early. Schools
closed at 2p & they've already called a snow day for tomorrow. Last
snowday
in Chicago was 1999. We could get anywhere from 10 to 2 feet of snow. Some
are claiming we're going to get 2-3 inches per hour. Worst time will be 9p
to 5am. Snowmobiles have been sent to the fire and police departments for
rescue capability. We're under a blizzard warning until tomorrow at 3p.
The
winds are really starting to pick up. I have a feeling the winds will be
the worst part of the storm; Lake Michigan waves are supposed to be
enormous--I won't be able to get down there to photograph them.
Since we have a snow day tomorrow, I'll be free to try for some pictures.
My big worry is power--sure hope it doesn't go out because I only have a
snort or two of scotch in the house. We're having brats and baked beans
for
dinner. May make some carrot cake. And a movie for sure.
Wish us luck! :-)
Big cheers, Christine from Chicago
