Somehow I have made it in to work and back for 2 days now...no side streets have been plowed yet and trees and power lines are down. My typical 10 min drive took me almost 2 hours on Tuesday. We still have power at home, which is better than the 100,o00 people in Jefferson County who don't...it's going to be a long, cold, dark night for a lot of people. Mom and Dad don't have power in Lanesville, but they do have a wood burning stove to keep them semi-warm as long as supplies hold out (and of course there is an extra bedroom here if they so choose). We woke up last night multiple times to loud cracks and bangs, one sounding like a cannon had been shot outside our window, as trees and large limbs came crashing down, bringing power lines with them. It was not a restful sleep to say the least.
But, it sure does look magical outside. Johnny and I took a long walk in our neighborhood when I got home from work today. Trees are heavy with ice and snow...a white, wintry wonderland.
Johnny's school has been called off the rest of the week....ahhh to be a teacher:)
