45 YEARS AGO


Wacka

Recommended Posts

I was at home. My Dad came home from work and was one of the last people down our road. There were dairy farms around us. They had to dump milk because no trucks could get in to pick it up. People went to grocery store on snowmobiles. We had a snowdrift that went over the power lines down the road. It was a crazy event.

I remember this well, though I was only 6.

 

My dad was trapped in downtown Buffalo at work, and had to sleep the night sitting at his desk.

 

We have a photo of him asleep at his desk wearing his work clothes and tie, etc....

 

We had a long hedge running for like 40 feet along the side of our property.  It was around 5 to 6 feet tall...it was completely gone!  Totally buried under a monster snow drift.

 

This photo gives an idea of what I'm talking about (actually from the blizzard of '77!)
