It's winter.
And don't taunt the winter, or it might bury us to show us who's boss. :scared:

8. The roads will be impassable in 2 hours |

I just made it back home tonight in the nick o' time .
The solar systems are charged up and the wood stove is at the ready when the power goes out...
...and I shoulda spent the money on the battery backup for the pellet stove...:(

The power went out before 9 this morning. Just came back on. Believe me, I'm grateful. I was bundled up in bed. 2 thermal shirts, socks, 5 blankets & sleeping bag waiting on the floor. It's suppose to get down to the teens tonight. BBbbbbbbbrrrrrrrrrr. Quick edit to say I hope everyone else is OK.

12. I lost it at 1am and it came back at around 4pm or so |
|
I was a lot luckier than a lot of others, especially all of the poor souls who are still without it.
