ICE, ICE, BABY!

Our 1st extreme ice storm! We are told this

is as bad as it gets! And actually, they are

saying that this will be a storm to remember

& be talked about for a long time. No

one goes anywhere. It started yesterday, around

noonish, and we'd been warned by the news

to get ready for it, so we went off to the store

to stock up on supplies. Jace (everyone else

for that matter) got off work early. He got to stay

home today, and probably tomorrow too.

It first started out w/ freezing rain, which ices

everything over, then it turned to sleet,

& its now snowing. It has not stopped at

all, all day today! It's nuts!

Since power lines get so

heavy with ice, they could snap & therefore,

lose our electricity! So far, its just flickered a few

times today & we hope to make it safely through

the night. But if not, we are prepared!

Thanks to my wonderful boy scout!

Enjoy the pics!
