Winter 2009

Last week we had a major ice storm here in LexKy. Power went out in our area Wednesday at about 3:30 AM. The first 24 hours of no heat was not too bad because of residual heat. Not being able to cook or heat food was actually harder.

Our power came back on the next day around 6 PM. We were the few fortunate ones around here. There are still some areas who are still in the dark. Our street was still very slick since snow plowers does not clean up side streets, country roads, and subdivisions. Trying to get to a main road was a pain in the you-know-where.

The temperature went up over the weekend and slowly started melting the ice. Start rejoicing right?

WRONG!
Mother Nature just dumped snow on us last night! Today's temperature of 15F will be of little help to us.

I do love winter and snow! It's the ice that I can't stand and driving through all that crap. I'll take the cold anyday, just no more ICE please. Better yet, give me SPRING....NOW!!!
