    This is such a nostalgic bit of footage, not just the music and the old fashioned non climate chnage winters we had, just seeing the kids get stuck in to helping and playing with each other. Made me really smile

    So you lived near Fontaine's eh? That cheicken sign was a hoot. I grew up in Dedham. Lived in Rosi and JP, and I went to high school at CM in Westie. I was seven and a half in '78. I've been in your old neighborhood oh...about ten million times.

    West Roxbury also borders ROSLINDALE. Part of West Roxbury used to be in Roslindale- Sunset Hill.

    Digging out from that blizzard took several days, and as I remember, it was quite cold in the days that followed. My father and I did all the digging. We had an 8 foot snow drift in front of the house. It's a find memory now, but was a huge pain in the butt at the time. School was closed for a week. I'm all set if it happens again. I bought a condo, no longer own a snow shovel. I do still love snow, just not a ridiculous amount like that.

      Yup, it was definitely a storm unlike any other. For me, anyway!

      New England area? Boston? I ask because a lot of comments are from the mid-west, not Massachusetts.

    The one that hit the Ohio valley along with Indian and Michigan was Jan 25-27, 1978. Just a few weeks earlier

    My dad lost a boot in that blizzard in Indianapolis and he found it like 3 months later

      This is about the February 6 blizzard in Boston, not Indiana.

    I remember...I lived in Floyds Knobs, Indiana and we were out of school so long that we ended up having school on tv. That was the best winter ever.

    Who cares about 6 days after? Hate the choice of music

      Aren't we the positive one? Mute the sound if you don't like the music.
