Just saw in the paper this morning that they are doing a piece about the blizzard of 78..

Where were you during the blizzard?

What tale do you have from that week..

Hopefully BIGKEN wasn't cleaning off cars that week.. I wouldn't want to bring out those long forgotten memories..


I remember that I was working 2nd shift and they let us out early.. I was driving my 76 F250 with a plow back then so I didn't get stuck..

I remember not being able to see 4 ft in front of the truck.. I drove a guy home that night and we both got scared when a big dark spot came out of no where.. Luckily it was just a bare spot in the road and not another vehicle..

The wind was whipping things up pretty good..

I got home plowed out the yard then went inside. The next morning the truck was buried upto the bumpers..

Glad I wasn't plowing for the town that year.. It would have really beat up the truck trying to move all that..
