The storm was strange because it started with freezing rain, followed by only about 2 inches of snow. The kicker was the return of freezing rain that covered the top of the snow with about half an inch of ice. That's when everything literally collapsed.
And then there was the glow of the magnificent kerosene heater that would heat my water for tea. In all this we were without electricity from our provider for 5 days. Had Ron and Roy not been courageous enough to travel to Terre Haute in this to get the generator we might have had a quite different "adventure." We were fortunate. And we are grateful to God that there were no deaths here as a result of the storm.
I would ask you to pray for the people of Western Kentucky as even now there is an entire county without power. They have to replace 125 poles that were snapped before electricity can be restored.
Wishing you all a grand weekend. As COLD and miserable as it was last weekend here, today the temperatures are supposed to be in the 50's. We''ll be cleaning up here.
