It was a fun ride home from work. I avoided the ditch. There's always some one in the ditch. Just because the speed limit is 65 doesn't mean they should do it when there is snow and ice on the road.

Cold and windy here as well.  Not quite enough snow to completely cover the grass.  Cable went out around 3:00 AM but power held steady.

We got light snow but lots of wind.  Our power went out for about 10 minutes very early this morning. First thought...my tanks!  Generator time?  Just when I was debating whether or not to wake my husband up the power came back on.  Whew.
