glad you are home safe, jimbo2012 and so sorry to hear the news re your son! am beginning to rethink the old adage that god does not give us more than we can handle! 1" to 2" of snow here on the coast and up to 6" some 15 miles inland. general area is suffering exploding transformers and downed power lines. one town had to declare a total travel ban until daylight because of downed wires and no traffic lights on local and major roadways!

house here just has the occasional flickering of the lights - but after 8 days of no power and lots of cold, i sorta flinch with each flicker! jump outta my seat though when the snow slides off the third floor roof to the second floor roof and then to the first floor roof!
