I wish to take time to thank Mayor Cohen and the City of Annapolis for the fine job I know they are doing...and wanting to say "PEOPLE BE PATIENT" these things take time...I remember well the snows, living at the end of a dead end in Eastport from the 1970's and 1980's and early 1990's...Stay in, have fun, don't stress, this will all be a memory...take some pics., make a snowman, drink hot chocolate, reflect...relax!
