we woke to ice this morning. icy branches scraping across the roof and windows. the house sat quietly with no power until almost noon. the fire warming while tom played the guitar and sang. huge old trees on both sides of our house have snapped off in the past couple of hours. they narrowly missed our roof and windows....thankfully the stone corner that one did hit is strong. you can see edgar's fence will need to be repaired. the studio house sits in the background watching it all, but appears to be fine. the weather is a drama that i can't avoid.

  3. Gracious! It sounds and looks like you had some strong winds. I've heard that a bad snow storm is about to hit the Midwest...Chicago, Il, Milwaukee, and Green Bay WI. All up through that area. It is very cold here today but it is sunny.

    I'm glad your home escaped the brunt of the trees falling. That could have been extremely dangerous! Glad you got your power back and thank God for fireplaces!!

  4. Fire, guitar, and singing...sounds like it was a nice way to pass the time with no power. Wish it was due to something other than ice. Glad there was no major damage.
