Snow-maggedon

This has been an eventful week!  First of all, it is Founder's Week at Moody Bible Institute.  Classes are canceled for a week-long conference, complete with alumni reunions, world-class speakers, professional musicians, and book sales.  Secondly, my parents are visiting Chicago!  They met at Moody, and they always enjoy returning to the Windy City, to where their love story began. We enjoyed dinner at the Grand Luxe last night.

 

Finally, Chicago has been positively pummeled by a blizzard.  Thunder, lightning, raging winds, and 20.2 inches of snow.  Crazy, eh?   My parents and I watched the early stages of the thundersnow from our restaurant window.  My poor camera could not fully capture the swirling snowflakes.  By the time we left, the weather had become unbearably treacherous, and we decided that taking a cab was worth it.

Don't expect to see any photos of the aftermath.  It's too darn cold to be taking pictures of the eight-foot snowdrifts!
