This storm left even more snow than I was ready for, being from Buffalo, NY. We ended up with about a total of 25 inches of snow over at my house. We ended up backing the all time snow record for DC and a lot of the surrounding areas. The record was back to like 1889 or something like that.<\/p>\n<h3>Snow Photos<\/h3>\n<p>Here are seven photos I took of all the snow we got in Washington, DC, over the two giant snow storms in February. Starting with ones of my driveway and all the snow I had to shovel to get my car out to the driveway. There are even a few of different other parts of my neighborhood.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4017\/4369035444_71ceb92b5d_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4017\/4369035444_71ceb92b5d.jpg\" alt=\"The view of snow in my backyard from my deck\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>View of snow from my deck<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4010\/4369035450_1f1ed7bd6f_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4010\/4369035450_1f1ed7bd6f.jpg\" alt=\"Looking down my driveway the first day towards the street\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Looking down my driveway towards the street<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4015\/4369035482_055d6b65ac_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4015\/4369035482_055d6b65ac.jpg\" alt=\"Large tree branch blocking the road just down the block from me\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Large tree branch blocking the road<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2680\/4369035456_4e3950ec17_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2680\/4369035456_4e3950ec17.jpg\" alt=\"Pile of snow plowed in front of large branch blocking road\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Other side of downed tree branch blocking the road<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4021\/4369035502_0872c98513_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4021\/4369035502_0872c98513.jpg\" alt=\"My side street with three cars covered in snow\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My side street<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4003\/4368324263_97714e3381_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4003\/4368324263_97714e3381.jpg\" alt=\"Tree in my front yard being dent over in the weight of the snow\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tree in my front yard with lots of snow<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4033\/4368324307_95e8051eab_b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4033\/4368324307_95e8051eab.jpg\" alt=\"My driveway starting to melt after a few days\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Partially melted driveway<\/p>\n<h3>What Did You do with Your Snow Days<\/h3>\n<p>While the Federal government was closed for the first four days of last week I had to at least work from home or take time off to cover those days. So between shoveling and just getting out of the house for a short bit I was able to do work from home, because of all the software, e-mail (home and work), and IRC chat software.<\/p>\n<p>Mostly spent me time doing different accessibility and usability testing of a new work web application. That&#8217;s all I can say about it, sorry. Ended up doing a review of a new micro website and mostly keyboard testing, along with other 508 testing using different adaptive technologies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finally, getting my,\u00a0 great snow storms of Washington, DC, in February, 2010 blog pot out.
