Snow Storm

Back in October was the last time we had any snow. (And only the second time it has snowed here this year) And it wasn't very much either. The problem was that the trees still has almost all of their leaves on them, and the snow was wet and heavy. Result, trees were down EVERYWHERE.

 This is the view from the front of our house.  The tree you see laying down on the right and left, is actually split in four.  It used to stand as the tallest tree in the roundabout.

 We had church and school canceled due to widespread power outages

Our power was out for 2 1/2 days.  Thank goodness for this generator.  We bought this generator when we lived in Indiana in fear of power outages due to tornadoes.  We never used it in Indiana.   We are now so grateful to have it!

(Some people near us were without power for a week and most did not have generators.  Brrrr!)
