Stella hit Tuesday!
In case some of our readers are not local, we had Snow Storm Stella, which began Tuesday and left people digging out on Wednesday,  It ended up being accumulating some of the highest blizzard snow totals in a 24 hour period. Travel bans were in place Tuesday evening in and effort to keep drivers and rescue teams safe, as well as to allow plows to try to get the roads cleared.   See local pictures from the past few days below.

While Stella was snowing & blowing Dana & Fred Jerzak drove to Boston... as a new liver became available for their son, Gavin, who was born with Biliary Atresia.
Congratulations and continued best wishes to Gavin and family!
