We were living in Saratoga at the time - and we had no power - so we were sent to stay with my aunt and uncle in Albany while my father stayed behind. He was manager of the power company, so it was his job to somehow get power restored. I remember hearing that he slept on a table in his office. 
Before leaving I remember sticking all my stuffed animals under my bed because all the trees were frozen to the roof and there was damage all over. We also had a puppy at the time, so of course she came with us. And my Dad got an award from the city for his efforts, but it was a nightmare while it lasted. I was scared. 
This one fortunately isn't that bad, is supposed to change over to rain tomorrow, but then we're expecting high winds! At this point, I've completely given up on Spring here in the North Country...
