"deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder where it's so white as snow..."

Storm Nemo is here, and it's actually been a bigger deal around Boston than Hurricane Sandy was.

 They shut down all public transit for a few days, which is crazy when you consider how many people take the bus/train/subway a day here. 

They also canceled school for Logan, so we've been home watching the storm progress.

 I'm not typically a fan of snow (because of the cold, obviously, and also because I usually just see it once it's been plowed and it's all muddy and ugly), but right outside our window I've been watching it come down and it's been so peaceful and pretty. I can't remember ever seeing a snow storm like this, it's really cool. 

Today I really wanted to go jump around in some of it because it was all untouched and I was curious how deep it was. We bundled up and hopped through it and I only got stuck once or twice because it was so deep :) It's still going out there, so I guess we'll see what happens!

It got a bit blizzardy when we first went out.


These are all taken in our parking lot right outside the window of our apartment, it was too snowy to go anywhere else!




logan the conquering hero. this is all snow in our parking lot 

right outside the door of our apartment



it was surprisingly hard to get to the top of any of the snow because it was all so soft you just sunk in


We have this pretty mountain we can usually see really well- but as you can tell in the pictures, it's totally covered. Storm Nemo has made for a pretty view, but I'm curious how long it's going to take everything to get back to normal. After this I'm pretty much ready to skip over spring and head straight into summer!
