The Late Arrival of Winter

Hello, everyone!

Boy what a few days we have had here! As you all know by now, I live in Maryland. What you might not know is that Maryland is not known for its snowy winters. Afterall, it was nearly 70 degrees Fahrenheit on Christmas Day.

Well, we just got slammed by Winter Storm Jonas, who delivered nearly 30 inches of snow to our region! This is record-setting. The storm happened from Friday evening into Saturday night. I was supposed to have class on Monday, but now we don't go back until Thursday! I'm definitely not complaining; this gives me more time to go on adventures and share them with all of my wonderful readers!

Here are some of the pictures I took:


It has been really difficult to shovel all of this snow! Since we aren't used to having this much snow, Maryland also is not properly equipped for cleaning all of it up. I haven't been able to go anywhere for the past two days because the government is advising people to stay off of the roads so that they can clean them all up! Thus, I am itching to leave my house as soon as possible. Hopefully I will do something fun tomorrow or the next day!

To close, let's finish with some fun vintage winter pictures!

Were you impacted by this storm? How has winter been so far for you? Cheers. x

    1. Our snow is melting super fast too! It has been pretty warm these past days, but at night everything appears to be freezing over!
