ICE ICE BABY

This pic was taken yesterday when the ice was still a pretty thin layer .....


Some day the sun will shine, the wind will not blow and the temperature will be more than 50 degrees!! It seems we are still the extreme weather magnets. Yesterday we woke to an ice covered world. The boys nearly broke their bottoms getting down the steps and we waited till the warmest part of the day to run to town. Thank goodness we did, though, because today its worse. We woke to a newly ice covered world and now there are snow flurries decorating it. YUCK ... YUCK ... YUCK !!!

What we're experiencing is nothing compared to the snow, ice and frigid temperatures being suffered in the Midwest, the tornadoes devastating Tennessee or the homes burried in snow in the Northwest, but it is unusual for this area and not what we expected when we came here.

We ran out of propane at about 12:30. It was a blessing that it didn't happen in the middle of the night. Bubba took a hammer to the steps so Mijo could get down them without falling. He had to use a pan of hot water on the truck door to thaw it open. He got more experience with his ice scraper on the window and is now up at the office helping Rene with something.

Life is exciting at the least. ;-)

More later .....
