Ice Storm Cometh

[Tuckervill]

Mississippi was hit pretty hard that time!

Somebody ripped the fireplace out of this 110 yo house and turned the chimney into a skylight long ago. We have a kerosene heater in case the power goes out, and the workshop has a wood burning furnace (we've got plenty of wood split from all the treefall) but it's not insulated. I dread the idea of losing power in this house!

wow, sounds awful and beautiful. I loved the photos. We rarely have weather like that. One day my birch tree was frozen bending over to the ground OVER my powerline. Just a little melting, and pop! the tree was upright again. Moral:
Birch trees are among the most flexible of trees.
