I was born in the blizzard of 1978, but have heard my grandmother tell about a bad one in the forties, not sure which one. They were pretty far back off the path (same place I live now). Her dad trucked livestock and was not home. She was home with her mom and two younger brothers for over a week. They had to walk on the top rail of the the fence from the house to the barn. Said it did not take long to learn it was better to make a few more trips and not get the milk bucket too full. I guess she tried to walk on the fence with a full bucket and ended up wearing it. She said they made it alot better than some, for some reason they had all the critters up in the same barn. Had milk, eggs, and a frier every day.

Must have been some storm.
