We're still talking about when it snowed in 1989
Comments (3)Yup.....big difference between a heavy snow and an ice storm. In an ice storm, it's a given we will lose power. I think it two years ago, a mammoth one come from the north-east. We hunkered down, awaiting. It stopped just as it entered our county.........stopped where the flatland glaciated terrain ends up against the hills. That area just happened to be in a state park/wildlife area, and when we drove a county over to see our accountant, it was like we were eyewitnesses to the glacier of thousands of years ago. Trees were just keeled over and snapped up to that magic line where the ice storm stopped. In our section of the county, it came down like rain. Just the difference of a few degrees. I can't imagine what it must be like to be a linesman, one in a crew who must work night and day for a week or two to bring folks back on the grid. How dangerous it must be to be up into the poles and trees where they're nothing but icicles, and the wind chill is in the negative numbers....See MoreWe're Still Touring...Lots to see
Comments (10)Oh goodness GG, what a wonderful tour! You sure picked a good day to post it too....takes some of the dreary out of a stormy, rainy, and otherwise dreary day. And of course I had to read your last couple of posts too. You have some great reblooms going on there. Also read your post on the "unlucky groundhog", poor thing. Looking forward to day two tours now. Jan...See MoreGlenda--we're waiting to hear about last night!!

Comments (54)Hi hi hi! Sorry I haven't checked back in here. We're loving the house. We've done a lot of repairs and painting (I'm covered in paint right now as I type, actually), and it's getting nice and cozy and homey. I especially LOVE our basement classroom setup. We're not completely unpacked yet, even though we've been here a month and a half now. There are still a few boxes scattered around that we're taking forever to unpack. Hopefully in the next week or two. I'll post inside pictures soon. Love the Harry in the window, Kat. :) Sigh....See Morelaceyvail 6A, WV
