Good to hear you are having fun in the teeth of it all.

We got bout 6 inches,my son is out on humpday school he is 17,we might go to natural bridge for a hike........

 

[bkduckworth]

We got hit by the same snow! Ended up with about 10 inches over all.

We were lucky enough to keep our power on, but I ran both tubs full of water, bought some drinking water, and stocked up on lamp oil just incase.

Our biggest problem is downed trees. I've had to cut two off our road so far. Good thing I'm traveling with my Jonsered Bushcraft saw!


Hope the next storm isn't too hard on ya!

Yeah my farmsitter called me and said he had milked by flashlight both Friday and Sat night.

Sat we went to the Solstice Concert at Cathedral of St John the Divine

It was snowing a little when we went in but it was a blizzard when we came out.

Our train back to WV was cancelled on Sunday. Luckily our friends we stayed
with were driving to WV the next day because the next train was FRIDAY.

When we got home our power was on but it broke trees everywhere. Cracked a huge limb out of my box elder in the back yard. (good excuse to use the hatchets):thumbup:

No damage really but put a nice persimmon down on my chicken coop
