The weather forecasters called for snow this past weekend and a winter storm warning. We received about two feet altogether. I’m sure other parts of the state received more.
Early Friday morning is when it began to snow. By Saturday nearly everyone in my neighborhood was stuck inside their homes. Believe it or not, I really enjoyed it. Our refrigerator and pantry were stocked earlier in the week. There was no stress about how to get to work or how to come back if the roads were really bad. Barely anyone was driving. Most people were walking in the middle of the streets because not all of the sidewalks were clear.Â
Sunday morning we felt the pain of our shoveling endeavors but it was worth it. It could be years before another storm like this hits Columbus. I wanted to live in the moment.
