On the heels of the January 27, 2015 blizzard in which Ipswich received 28″ of snow, Christopher Sammartano bundled up for a bicycle ride on Argilla Road to check out the waves at Crane Beach. He posted this video on Youtube.
These are terrific pictures of the Blizzard of 2015. Thank you for sharing them.
The beauty of nature still comes through though …
