Marilyn Monroe - in front of Sam the Clam's on Meriden Waterbury Road - seems undaunted by the snowfall last week. What will she think when the approaching storm is over? Her snow hat may be even taller. And gee... her legs must be cold!

We sent this picture to our parents today - Sunday, Dec. 26 - after I did the driveway for the first time this afternoon after the storm started and before it got too bad. Both sets of parents just moved to Florida earlier this year. Mine from Watertown and my girlfriend's from Spring Lake here in town. They called to see how the first storm of the year was going so we needed to send them something cute. Thought the readers might find it amusing as well....
