Well, this is embarrassing. When we sent out last week's Bulletin, we weren't expecting enough snow over four days to rival the historic 72.4 cm that fell in 1898. Here we all are, having spent over 72 hours digging ourselves out of our homes. There have been some dark times, no doubt, and we're not talking about a persistently early sunset.
But there have been good times. We've heard of people helping one another dig themselves out, building ramps worth national news, making AI art out of folks living in NDG, and public groups to help us dig one another out. It's amazing to see us help one another get through times like this.
