As we spot the first flurries of this latest storm front, it’s easy to get down in the dumps. The threat of more snow has long since become tedious, and we’d just like to be able to walk down a non-icy sidewalk like a normal person, thankyouverymuch. In a seeming effort to remind us all that snow is supposed to be fun, Columbia Heights residents Jordan Gantz and Nathan Golon [full disclosure: Jordan and I were roommates in the same group house about four years ago] have produced this beautifully shot little music video depicting the city during last weekend’s storm. Allow me to warn you: the soundtrack, a moody Vampire Weekend song, may very well make this a little too emo for some tastes. So proceed with some caution if you lack that particular sweet tooth, and turn down the volume if necessary.
