Snowed In

Last week we experienced our biggest snow storm of the season.  We knew it was coming - schools were closed a day in advance, the sidewalks were salted the night before.  I was really excited about the prospect of a huge storm.  Like a kid, I still get very excited about snowstorms.  Though as an adult living in NYC, I don't get any snow days.  The subway always runs, even when the roads are impassible.

I took advantage of the commute and brought my camera.  Walking the blocks to and from the subway, I was able to capture the moments as the snow fell.  Families were out with their sleds. Few cars braved Seventh Avenue in Park Slope, which is normally heavily trafficked. By the next morning, the snow had stopped and we were back to business as usual.  I'm so glad I captured that day.  I have my own memories and am able to share what I saw with people (perhaps a bit saner than myself) who stayed warm and snug that day.

You can see one of them on the Ditmas Park blog.  You can find the whole set here.
