Icy morning

We had a "mini ice storm" last night. It paled drastically to the one we had 10 years ago. As you can see, the birch trees out back are laid over with the weight of the ice. Even the little wind gauge that Ken has out back was covered. The roads are covered and I'm sure the traveling is very slow this morning. The wind is supposed to pick up and be quite blustery today. That will either knock off the ice, or blow the trees over. If we lose our power, we are all set with the generator. Afer the ice storm of 1998, we learned that several things we like to do require electricity, so we made provisions for that.
