Snow Is Syracuse

When I made the decision to attend Syracuse University, the first thing people said to me was... "You know it snows a lot up there?!"

Well yes, I heard that rumor, but that did not keep me from attending SU.  I mean, how bad could it really be?

The past three years, the winters have not been that bad.  It snowed an occasional eight inches at a time and it would continue day after day after day, but it really didn't snow the way people were telling me it would.  I was just talking to someone about how we have been having mild winters for Syracuse.  And then, December 2010 hit, and the first snowstorm we got was the biggest snow storm I have ever seen.  It just did not stop.

Each day, I went outside to remove the snow from the roof of my car.  It was so thick I had to shovel it off.

It is a whole different world when it snows that much.  But, I do not have one complaint because it truly makes for a new adventure all on its own!
