Every time it snows more than two inches, why is it that people living on the side streets or even the main streets of Southeast can’t get out of their houses?
During Snowzilla, I was stuck in my apartment in Southeast from Friday through Monday. I got out only because my good neighbors came together to dig me out. Before they did, I couldn’t go to work, to the store, to… anywhere!
The neighbors also cleaned out the yard and put down salt.
I was scared when the snow kept falling so hard. I felt closed in. I thought, if the snow got higher, I would fall in, and that would be IT. It was so cold, and many things can happen in that weather. I was worried that my 80 year-old neighbor, who had a stroke, might have a heart attack and no one would know. I was scared the CSX train that runs near me past would fall off the tracks and crash into my house.
Fortunately, it did not, which is why I wrote this story.
