It was referred to as Nemo. It brought snow and took away power. Our year-old snow blower handled the snow (I need to finish up tomorrow), but going without power was something new to us. The power went yesterday at 9pm and was restored today at 6pm. We had it pretty easy, because our gas fireplace continued to work, keeping us warm, while many Rhode Islanders couldn’t heat their homes without power. Anyhow, snow forts and snow blowers ruled the day. And unlike the blizzard of 2007, this one didn’t involve a nine-hour commute home which, coincidentally, was the topic of my very first blog post.




Nice shots. Glad you got a picture of the fort before it was obliterated by the abominable snowman.
