Reminds me of when I was a boy. Back in the day, Upstate<br \/>\n            New York, this kind of storm was the norm.&nbsp; Why, I remember having<br \/>\n            to dig tunnels through the snowdrifts just to get to the sidewalk<br \/>\n            so we could walk to school.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font color=\"#000000\">Anyway, up at dawn this morning to see what the<br \/>\n          storm had wrought.

Oh yean, been there.&nbsp; Said son will be sentenced<br \/>\n          to digging out the car when he returns.
