Ice and Snow Storm January 2009

These photos were taken outside the home of Denver and Denise on Highway 11. This was beautiful but brutal as it has done lots of damage to trees, homes, cars and business's. As of yesterday there were still an estimated 300,000 residents without electricity which also means no heat for most of those people. Once again we have been fortunate just like when the hurricane winds hit last summer. Our power has flickered off and on a little but that's all. To give you an idea how lucky we are, my garage is on a separate meter and there is no power in there. So there are a lot of people on that transformer and beyond us that still have no electricity. Once again our gazebo has been destroyed but I can live with that. The worst was getting the 3 inch layer of frozen snow and ice of the driveway. If it wasn't for my little old Craftsmen tractor with the snow plow that crap would have had to melt off. I tried a shovel and there was no way. Anyway, hope you enjoy the photos.
