Ice Storm Mania

Yay! We have power. :) On Tuesday, January 27th we woke up to a winter wonderland. Over the next few days Northwest Arkansas recieve at least an inch of ice, followed by sleet and then about a 1/8 inch of snow. I know this may not seem like a lot to some people but down her that is a lot. It very hilly in NWA so you can see how ice is an issue. At 9:45 in the morning on Tuesday we lost power, however, we did get it back around 6:45 pm the next night. The biggest problem for most is that many many people won't get power for a while, and most everyone lost a tree or two. From my survey today, it looks like we are going to loose at least 3 of our own. Here are a few pictures I took.



A house down the street. I Really loved that tree.

So much for the mighty oak.

We had to hack through this mess to get home.
