Snowmaggedon, that’s what they’re calling the blizzard that hit the DC metro area this weekend, blanketing “World Headquarters” (my house) in about two feet of wet, heavy snow. Sadly, I will now miss my scheduled presentations in Maine and Massachusetts. I’ve never no-showed before, and I’m pretty upset about it.
I extend my heartfelt apologies to my hosts, the Maine Association of Water Utilities and Watershed Action Alliance of Southeastern Massachusetts, and to any of you who were planning to attend.
As you can see from the picture, I had shoveled the driveway, packed my suitcase, and was ready to travel. Alas, the snow on our street is quite literally as high as the suitcase. We have yet to see our first plow, more than 48 hours after the snow stopped. Area airports, subways, busses, and Amtrak are all barely running, if at all. And for good measure, more snow is on the way. Yikes!
We’ll reschedule the Massachusetts presentation for sometime in March. I’m hoping my hosts in Maine will put me on the schedule for next year’s conference. If you are a client — I’m open for business so long as we have electricity.
Thanks for your understanding!








Whoa. That IS a lot of snow. And I’m Canadian.
Ironic that a water resource prevented you from speaking about water. On the bright side, look at all that inventory!
We missed you, Erik. Craig Douglas did a good scramble and found a local communications consultant to keep us engaged. We hope to see you in this neck of the woods soon: folks in the water industry are finally realizing the need to tell their story in ways people can understand.
