yea... whoops!
woke up at 3am and all the lights were off throughout the house, apparently the power had gone out. i naturally passed back out until about 7am by this time its freezing inside. so we wake up xmas morning, had opened our presents the night previous cause not everyone could be around xmas day. we had no heat, no electricity and nothing to do. the fam all piled in our 4wds and decided to go drive through the snow drifts in town. i live in a small town of about 700 people and the only street that had been plowed was main st, and it was only two lanes separated by a row of snow in between. my moms bf had immediately gone down this alley way and i was like wtf is he thinkin haha. well i followed anyway and sure enough we about got to the other end of it and he had gotten stuck. i had to back all the way down this alley, and it was not straight and on an incline. first couple attempts i didnt make it but i hammered down on the gas the last time and flew out into the street hauling balls. i ended up gettin around and had to pull his dodge truck out.
well so we get goin again and i was in front this time. when we got to main street i saw the snow pile in the middle and decided to go over it, made it, went to go back over and got high centered kinda. i just needed a little push and i got out alright. covered my mom and little bro with flying snow off my tires doin it.
ok so we mess around some more we about to go home and i decide to go down this one last road. i made it through a few drifts and the last one i made it through slowed me down to much and i got stock half way through and on top the very last one. had about 25-30ft to go. i was stuck in some pretty deep snow, as shown in the picture. ended up shoveling snow for what seemed eternity and still had to be pulled out haha. we get home and change clothes cause we were cold and my bro calls mom, hes fire chief back home. we go to help him at the community center to set up generators and heaters to provide shelter cause town was gonna be without power or 3 days
were literally walking out the door and my moms pager (vol firefighter) goes off and apparently some dudes house caught on fire on main street. so we go down town, my mom and bro are fighting the fire and we just sat in our nice warm vehicles and watched for a few hours. it was kind of a ridiculous fire, ended up calling 4 stations out to it actually. i was thinking it was a good thing i drove through the pile of snow in the middle cause the firefighters were using the path to walk back and forth through lol. afterward we go back home crawl under some blankets and thank god the power came back on a few minutes later, off totally over 15 hours, glad it didnt take the 3 days though.
you can see the ridiculous amount of snow in the middle of the street and how high it was drifting up around.
