Well the Twin Cities certainly does not need to worry about having a White Christmas this year, Snowmageddon of 2010 has taken care of that for us!
For days, weather forecasters had been predicting inches of snow to accumulate and so far we have had about a foot and a half fall, and its still coming down... not to mention the -20 degree windchill. I don't think any body was quite expecting anything like today.
As the dinner hour approached, my roommates and I were getting hungry, so we decided to take an adventure out to pick up a pizza from Papa Johns- since NOBODY was delivering! With true Minnesotan fashion we put on our jackets, hats, boots and scarves and took Bridget's Jeep out into the frosty winter wonderland. We came across some interesting, and FUNNY sights...including a guy waiting at the bus stop who obviously did not know that the Metro Transit system had shut down for the day...
Here is our street!! its covered in snow. It only looks deserted because everybody that was out was trying to push a car out of a snow bank behind us!
This guy was outside McDonalds clearing the sidewalks...
OUR DESTINATION! WE ARRIVED!!
One of many cars that were stuck in the snow.
Washington was the only street that was plowed! We are pretty sure that is because it is an Emergency route to the University's hospital.
The corner of Washington and University!
That is some pretty deep snow at this bus stop....
Megan and Bridget with our Pizza!! we made it home safe and sound!
