Ontario Ice Storm How You All Doing.

My mother in law happen to capture the exact moment i got an ice ball to the face haha. I had a good reason to look up as i was helping my stubborn Father in Law climb safely up the ladder he kept insisting he would do it. lol

Hope you guys are doing ok up there, looks like quite a mess! Personally, I'd rather see a day of snow then 10 minutes of freezing rain. We've been lucky here on the East coast, mostly just snow. Good luck to yas all!

I drove 9 hourse from Toronto to upstate Vermont during the storm so that my kids could have Christmas with their cousins. My neighbours are watching the house and apparently there was no power as of this morning. I will probably lose a tree in the front and likely the fish will get too cold and die. But, thankfully no major damage. I'm sure that I will have some chainsaw work when I get back. On the bright side, I had a nice self-gift from pipesandcigars waiting for me when I got here.

That's the spirit way I see it I got myself some good firewood for next year once a dry it all off lol

Ice storms can be devastating.

Wishing everyone luck and safety this Christmas.

Wow - incredible pics guys - thanks for sharing. We're in Central VT and we were spared fortunately.
Good luck to all of you affected - hope you get things back to normal quickly.

PS - Peck, I am having trouble adjusting to your new Avatar. I'm not sure it quite captures your suave, devil-may-care, sardonic persona quite like the old avatar did....

Thanks Pat. Thought I might try something a bit different. I have been reading a biography of Orson Welles and thought that would be cool. I may change it back.

I may change it back

Ah... That's better. It's not that I'm change averse, per se; that Avatar just sets expectations perfectly.
On the salt front, after five big box stores and no luck I discovered an aggregate depot selling 75lb bags for $7 ... I bought two for myself, and one each for the neighbours. Drive way is done, it's Miller time! (Note for this afternoon's production of "Miller Time!" the role of Miller will be played by Erdinger Dunkel)
