Storm Harlow

Good afternoon everyone! I hope you all are having a good day. Last week was very interesting here. First we got about 4 inches of snow which was quickly covered with a thick layer of ice. It was definitely a mess.

Many tree limbs are down in our yard.

There are quite a few more but I didn’t get any more pictures of them.

Major damage though from all the downed trees. Our power went off Wednesday morning and didn’t come back on until Sunday evening.  We were definitely ready for it to come back on.

We have a generator though and Grace and I were able to get it started so we didn’t lose any of the food in the freezers. We cooked our meals on the wood stove and used the water from the rain barrels to flush the commode. All in all, not too bad but definitely makes for lots more work without electricity. So many people have it much harder than we do when the power is out.

I think I read that about 80% of the county was without power. Some areas are still without it. Many surrounding counties were hit with this storm as well. Another storm is supposed to be coming in on Wednesday but it is just snow(hopefully).

However, God always has beauty to show us!

God bless!
