or at least a decent amount anyways. By the way - snieg (pronounced shneck) is the polish word for snow - a little something we learned complements of our neighbors.
We have officially received 23.2 inches of snow in the last 36 hours, apparently for Philadelphia that is a whole winter's worth in one sitting and the second highest recorded snowfall. So as we bundled up for church this morning we were greeted by a beautiful day, full of pristine white snow and beautiful sunshine. The streets were bustling with people shoveling driveways and digging out their cars. As we arrived at church we drove into an empty parking lot full of unplowed snow - church of course was canceled - we silly wisconsinites, unphased by the snow, forgot that the entire city shuts down when there is record snowfall!
So after making it home and Ivan taking a nap, we went out exploring. We ended up in Fort Washington, which is about 2o ish minutes north west of Philadelphia. There we found a state park and took a wander. Here are a few pics of our snow fall and our walk this afternoon...enjoy
lots of love
