Here's how it looks here:

Our River Birch trees at dawn:



About an hour ago:



I'm pretty sure they'll come back.  Hubby's worried about them.

Well it snowed and weighed things down further.  Power went off and on a few times. Now its completely out. Hope we wont have to resort to dragging out the generator. 

Signing out for now. Am using the wifi connection on my cell phone.

Yes, the generator is ready to go if need be.  We had it running and noticed neighbors' lights were on.  So we know the generator works, it's huge.....keeps the whole house up and running. So I can rest assured the tanks will be fine if power goes out again.  :)  Hubby, the dog and I can wear sweaters but the tank heaters need power.  Lol.
