I had my '76 Firebird then and had just started a new job only the week before in Melville, right near the Quad...the office was closed for 4 whole days, and so were the schools...I think that would be unheard of today, with 4-wheel drive vehicles, and how much safer cars and trucks are today...
Fortunately for me, I never got out of my driveway that day, so I didn't get stuck, but my boyfriend (now husband), got stranded in my driveway at my parent's house for the week with us...lol...now THAT was a 'picnic' - "NOT"...lol....
BTW, my Dad had a '77 Nova that we loved.....it was light blue metallic...
THOSE were the days, huh???!!!...
