...I spent the first 9 years of my life in Batavia, and can still vividly remember January '77 and '78, where storms left over 5 feet of snow on the ground (over my head at that age) and we'd have to shovel the roof of the house to prevent collapse- and then just jump off the top of a 2-story house into a pile of fluffy powder snow!
Of course, as a child, I didn't have to worry about driving (even though cars were banned from the roads for a number of days) and isn't it every kid's dream to have a snowstorm shut down school for 3 weeks in January?
I still love snow, driving hassles and all, and wish that I could still take my parents' old 1972 SAAB 96 out for a romp in the snow. Alas, they traded it in years ago...
