@anniegreens Oh my, this brings back snowpocalypse memories/trauma! I didn’t drive for 9 days. I went stir crazy and posted a lot of guinea pig videos on YouTube.

@jean It was a while ago, but I was probably similarly stuck at home. I think that may have been the one where I walked to New Seasons only to find them closed when I got there. The one that happened in February this year was more upsetting though because we weren’t sufficiently warned and it came down all within half a day.
@anniegreens Oh yes! That February snow was shocking. I was lucky to live above the Green Zebra at that point, so food shopping was doable.
The view from my then apartment:
@jean I miss Green Zebra 💔
This is going to make my micro.blog conversation a lovely collection of snow pics!
Here's one from my backyard in the February snow, right when it started to really come down in the late afternoon.
@indw lovely ❄️ must hold onto this conversation as we eyeball the 10-day forecast
@anniegreens It’s good to look at snow pics when the weather gets hot. That is really lovely. One thing about snow is that it can provide some great photography subjects.
I had such a long “relationship” with GZ. They initially said they were going to take over the secondhand store on that site. I was so excited for that. On Twitter they promised me that they were opening in 2014. I knew they shouldn’t have promised that. Instead they waited for the new building, and didn’t open until 2020, right before pandemic. I was a regular, especially once I moved to the new building myself. I had already decided I wasn’t staying in that apartment when the closing was announced. So sad.
@anniegreens I actually purchased a snow shovel earlier this year. I may only need it a couple times per year, but I like being outside in it and I can use the exercise :)
