Now that looks cold! We have been cold here in Tucson for the past three days, but not THAT cold, and I'm glad that's the case

We had 8" of snow and I really thought this tree was going to go through my house the snow was so heavy.

I am fustrated with the board.

It seems I can only post one picture at a time and I can't get the post to edit after I attach the pic. This is so much harder than it has to be.

So glad that your power is back on! Been there and done that - 11 days without power in "07 due to our ice storm. thank goodness that we had a fireplace and a gas cook stove that we could light with a match and we had water. Some people that had their own wells did not even have water because it takes electricity to power the well. I would not wish 11 days without power on my worst enemy - well maybe this one person.

I'm so sorry. I did not know that there are people who are still out of electricity. I hope they have yours fixed very soon.
