Hoth enough for ya?

State officials urged people to stay home this morning, and it seems like a lot of people heeded that.
Paul Villanova put on his warm clothes this morning to take photos of an empty Summer Street in Fort Point (above) and an equally empty and windswept Dewey Square:

Summer Street
in winter.
Did the bus driver ...
... commute in from TonTon?
(I'm home and not in my nearby office tower because the building is closed - they can't keep the building warm without shutting down the ventilation.)
Ahem...
Pedantic nerd alert: It's Tauntaun...and it's not a place, it's the animals that they ride on Hoth (and that Han stuffs Luke in to save his life).
If you want to recreate the experience at home, you can buy one of these complete with a lightsaber zipper pull.
So
Rode in from Taunton on a one ton tauntan who wantonly eats wontons?
Well done
PS - Adam, "Default" text format garbles the [img] tag. I had to switch to filtered HTML format in order to get it to render correctly.
Sorry about that
Will take a look.
This Summer Street photo gives me chills
I used to work for a company in the A Street area that required employees to be present, even on days like this. I used to have to walk right down Summer as pictured. The company wasn't even any kind of necessary service that they had to remain open, they just did, "for the clients". Any absence due to snowstorms or other acts of God were treated as regular absences and subject to discipline. I'm glad I don't work there anymore, but the photo brought back memories.
+1 for the title.
