Everybody okay?

Did you make it through the storm okay?

We did. It turned from snow into an ICE storm but not as bad as it might have been. There are so many roof collapses in CT and MA...you can look it up in the news. There is also a prediction for a storm this Saturday and next Tuesday. Hopefully, they will not be big storms.

Here is our "front yard." We very live close to the sidewalk and the snow piles are much taller than I am between the sidewalk and road. You can see how tall by looking at the snow in comparison to our neighbor's vehicles. That fence is about 4 feet tall.

My muse is on vacation...
probably where the
weather is better!

So for now,
I will make some tea...
and do my best...

to enjoy the day!

Beautiful but dangerous...

These photos were taken in Massachusetts. You can click on the photos to make them larger. How beautiful it looks but how much damage this ice storm caused!

My camera could not really capture the prism-like quality of the ice which encased everything. It was as if iridescent glitter danced on the surface of the ice...fiery opals reflected in the sun...as if the world had turned into a crystal palace.

Hopefully, the power will be restored soon, because there are thousands of people with no electricity, phones, or water. The road were not totally cleared so we didn't progress very far north.

Tomorrow it will be in the 50's and unusually warm in parts of New England.The trees will snap back into position as temperatures warm up. That will not be much consolation to those who have severe storm damage from this beautiful but dangerous storm.
