Where were you? 40 Years Ago?
The Big Snow of 1967

Forty years ago, the absolute silence in Clarkdale on the morning of Dec. 13, 1967, woke me up. The outside stillness brought back childhood memories of winters in Massachusetts when a heavy snowfall that had started during the night would muffle the outside world under a white blanket. With that thought, I rose and opened the window shade; I could barely see the houses across Main Street through the gently falling, large snowflakes that were smothering our town. It was snowing!
