Winter Storm '08 - 12 hours in....




Dear Diary,
We have been snowed in for 12 hours here in West Seattle. I hold out little hope that anyone will find us. While we still have heat, television, internet connectivity, a microwave, and warm slippers life is hard. We walked a mile each way to the grocery store in 20 something degree weather. Watching the cars spin out and jack knifed buses gives us little hope of escape. Here is Susannah walking back from the grocery store and the buses that couldn't escape the icy grip. Also some guy out in front of our house chaining up to get up the hill. I hope we can make it, if we don't post again you will know we were frozen into our icy tombs.

All right, you wimpy Seattle-ites. Stay tuned for some REAL winter pics. We're really sorry about your TWENTY degree weather...we open up the screen door here in Spokane because we're SWEATING in temperatures that high. LE
