Snow, Ice Storm, Snow, Wind--WHAT A MESS

I read the Seattle Times on the computer. I get to see all the pictures that people have sent about the storm. YIKES!  Unbelieveable.  I will have to say that I'm glad we are here, 60 to 70 degrees, no wind, ckear skies.

Kevin, our housesitter, called and said there was no power. Denny talked him thu on how to connect the generator. Sucess!  He was without power for about 12 hours. Last time that happened, in 2008, we lost it for 8 days.

Darin has his trailer and boat stored at our place.  The canopy over the boat was destroyed, but no damage to the boat itself.  The canopy over the trailer fell onto the top of the trailer. No damage to the trailer, but the canopy is toast.  Our next door neighbor, Nichole and her daughter, were out during  the snowfall trying to get alot of the snow on top of the trailer off. It was snowing so fast and heavy that it was a loosing battle. Thanks Nicole for the effort. You went beyond the call of  neighbor duty.

I heard it is raining now, so the worst is over.  Hopefully it doesn't happen again this winter.
