Maya- I will never forget the winter of 1970-71

, nor the next . Both broke records for snowfall . Where I lived , north-west of Ottawa , we had 142 inches of snow that winter . The following year was worse at 171 inches . I had friends in a townhouse in Ottawa with a postage stamp front yard , and there was just no place to put the snow from the driveway and sidewalk . It was illegal to throw it onto the roadway . Folks in that condo had towers of packed snow as high as fifteen feet tall covering their entire little front yard . I was in company housing with windows starting about five feet above ground level . At the peak , there was only about a foot of window at the top to let light in.
