78 Blizz

Finally! A place to talk about the Blizzard of 78!
52" of snow in downtown Providence. Stuck there from the Monday morning of the storm until Thursday morning.
Marriott Hotel. Food ran out on Monday night. Had one blueberry pancake on Tuesday, after taking some supplies of a trailer truck. On Thursday, we walked to Attleboro on the Rte 95 on divider in platform shoes (it was the seventies after all...). We fell down a lot...
Got back to CT on Sunday. The car we drove in was found in April and impounded. It was stuck in a pile of snow at a gas station on a corner - we had to abandon it (fiat spyder convertible...). Our boss had to drive through Massachusetts to get us back to CT. Ok... done.
Thanks for listening.
