It’s hell on earth out there, people! A couple of inches have accumulated here in West Seattle and you know what that means (what with the hills and relatively few snow plows): we aren’t going anywhere for a while. That means the Great Blizzard Of ’08 will give us plenty of time to look back at the Great Blizzard Of ’16. Skating on Green Lake for two weeks — that’s some serious stuff. Click. [I'm going to defer the Friedlander post until a later date]

Skating on Green Lake, 1916.
