Maxigumee: Snow Day!

Snow Day!

Had my first New York snow day last Wednesday. I was at the Met with Shannon on Tuesday when the closings were announced. The sky was clear and the air wasn't too cold, not exactly the perfect weather for snow. All of the weathermen seemed pretty sure that this SNOWPOCALYPSE was going to happen, though, even when there was hardly a sprinkling on the ground at midnight.

As a fun snow day surprise, Angela signed out a projector from school and we spent the night in the living room watching movies projected onto a big white sheet.

When we woke up, there still wasn't all that much snow. Maybe two or three inches at most. As the day progressed however, the flakes got bigger and the snow got heavier until, when I stepped outside in the afternoon, the entire neighborhood looked like a magical fairy snow forest. The Brooklyn Winter Wonderland was so beautiful that I immediately rushed back in and got my camera and my three roommates and went on a little adventure around the block.
