I still M> remember thge double blizzard year about 13 or so years ago. That was M> the best! There seemed to be quite a bit of snow my last year in Maryland. I was working at Sheppard Pratt and had just purchased a 2009 VW Gti. I had also obtained 16" rims for taller snow tires (stock rims were 18"). I had Blizzak "run flats" for the snows. Coupled with a manual tranny, the car was invincible. There was perhaps close to 100" of snow in Maryland before Christmas. I worked on "The Overlook" at Sheppard which was a private unit for Adolescents. Because I had made it to work in a blizzard, they were short staffed and it was mandatory that I had to stay. I slept in an old conference room with a huge fireplace, Victorian era furnature and tall windows. I remember looking out of this room at night and the snow was literally drifted up to the side of the building and all of the spruce trees outside. Since I was at "The Overlook" It reminded me of Stanley Kubric's "The Shining" :O <--> The Blood Stone BBS - Telnet & HTTP www.bsbbs.com <--> \/ WWIVnet Node 1@707 - Sonoma County California \/ .
