I remember the blizzard*S* of '78. There were two, only a couple of days 
apart. The State of CT was "Shut Down". No cars were on the roads. We made "snow 
angels" in the middle of the Post Rd, "US1"! What a kick that was! ;) We also 
got a lot of days off from school, and I got to build some pretty cool 
multi-room snow forts! ;)

I do remember listening to the radio a lot, then, too. I even took one out 
into the snow fort. It was a blast. :) I wonder what people thought, as they 
walked by and heard music coming from a snow fort? ;) That was when AM was still 
king, and WICC was my favorite station. Fond memories of a still-innocent era.
