Power out for three days. Stayed in the house anyway (in anticipation of quick return). Man, you really find out what having power is, when you lose it.
Seven trees down in my yard alone. Tree guys are going to have a field day.
As some of you might know, I am operating with one wing disabled. Getting the yard back to normal will be a challenge. I may have to farm out the work. I am used to doing it myself. It's hell getting older and having a medical issue.
I'll be getting back to turns today. Please be patient.

Hey Ed,
Know exactly what your going through minus the power grid loss and broken wing!
Wife broke her leg day after Christmas. Needless to say I've been busier than a one armed paper hanger. Never realized what she did in a day until I had to do it. I have a whole new appreciation for my lovely lady!
Top that off with the worst winter in Mansfield, OH in 30 years plus need I say a car accident, as if I don't have enough to worry about, I'll be glad when this winter is over, truly I will!
Hang in the Ed, the wing will heal and look at the bright side, you won't have as many leaves to clean up in the fall!
Cheers!!
John
LOL!
Just shoveled three inches of snow.
In less than an hour we got another three. And, the storm is supposed to dump around fourteen over the next twenty-four hours.
As long as the ice stays away it should not be too bad.
At least I do not live in Atlanta.

Looks like we are next in line down here.....predictions of up to 18 inches in places..........we are supposed to get the joy of snow to rain and back to snow where I am...........I guess were having a winter :-)

Upper 80s here for a few days. (runs away...)
LOL! Going out to shovel two to four inches of light dusting that fell yesterday.
80 could boil water here.

Four more inches, to find a place for. My mailbox is almost covered.
Thank goodness for snow throwers.

Called my brother in Illinois he was shoveling snow at 10:00 pm. I don't want anymore of that in my life.
That's why I moved from California to Las Vegas. ( My home is in the mountains in Cal. 4600 ft. too cold and snow in the winter)
8 inches last Thursday.........14 inches Sat nite..........6 inches this morning (Tue)............6 more predicted for Wed nite........I have asked mother nature for truce terms..............running out of room to put it :-)

Wow, that's quite a weather you guys are experiencing... Mildest winter since some ten years here in the Nordics...
Stay safe!
