Ron — I’ve lived here all my life, so since late 1959.  So yes, I apparently 
survived that winter (although I don’t particularly remember it per se…), as 
well as many subsequent ones.  How about early winter 1982, when we got 36” of 
snow in an afternoon/evening?  Or the year in the early 70’s when I still had 
my paper route, and walked around delivering newspapers in -60F windchill and 
blizzard conditions?

Kinda makes one wonder why we live here, doesn’t it?   :^)   But it does make 
the sailing season sweeter.
