Photos: Families get busy snow blowing, sledding and making snowmen during first abundant snow storm

Posted

East Bay towns were abuzz with shovelers, snow blowers and plow trucks during the winter's first substantial snow storm on Thursday. In the afternoon as the sun began to show it self from behind the clounds, families flocked to familiar sledding hills at Burr's Hill Park and Colt State Park for a bit of frosty, family fun.  In Barrington, Thea Baker and her clan made a giant snowman with a top hat and a pipe at their home on Sowams Road.

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
