Most places got well over a foot of snow. Schools and businesses were shut down including the Mall of America and the University of Minnesota.
The last time Mpls. and St. Paul schools shut down was the winter of '94 - and that was because of the cold!

Outside Asiyah's school on the day of the snowstorm. Click here to enlarge. If you click on the photo, itself, you will go to FlickR. Just above the upper left corner of the picture will be a link that says "All Sizes". See them, too, if you like.

In Mpls we got around 18 inches of snow.

Where have all the swing sets gone?



Really cool pix, Janice (No pun intended). Love the tree in the school pic.
Ahhhh. Fond memories. Everything looks so pretty, and I am so glad it's there and not here. Enjoy it now because it will be gone before you know it and those three weeks of summer will be upon you.
Not for me!! NO WAY!! I hate cold weather.
