Due to Jay's aforementioned disappointment with the buffalo burger, or maybe just because the man loves burgers, Jay grilled out in the freezing cold on the wings of a blizzard. Jay's Coast Guard buddy Ed, who lives nearby braved the traffic (crazy people stocking up on everything) and came to eat with us. The kids love Ed and get so excited when he comes over. They wanted him to come for Thanksgiving, but Ed does have family so, maybe next year. By the time Ed left around 9, the snow was falling thickly, as you can see by the picture. I felt like a kid, giddy, looking out the window every few minutes. It is so wonderful to go to bed knowing that it is really snowing hard and you will wake up to find a wonderland the next day. The weather guessers were calling for 10-20 inches! I was skeptical, but excited. And turns out they guessed one right! The storm that dumped all that rain on our friends on the Gulf Coast came up here and blanketed us!
