Rain City Story

The Blizzard of 2007

This has been one helluva a weather year. In Fall City, we got about 14 inches and as of 11:04 pm, it's still coming down. Other parts of Seattle got less than an inch but we were hammered here in the foothills.

Poor Amy left Kirkland (about 16 miles from home) just after 4:20 and is still 10 miles away here at 11:05. She's ok but behind a bunch of dumbasses who can't drive in snow. For some reason, people up here think it's perfectly acceptable to abandon there car in the middle of the road and just leave.

The dogs loved it. Sally absolutely loves the snow and plays Tazmanian Devil until she exhausts herself. Poor Kirby jumped off the deck and was completely submerged. He let out a huge yelp and jumped back. Poor widdle guy.

Check out the pics in my Flickr Gallery.

[EDIT]: Amy got home at 12:11 AM last night, nearly an 8 hour commute. FROM KIRKLAND.

Take a look at this normally very busy section of I-90 near Issaquah. Tons of abandoned cars right on the highway. A total cluster...
