We had ice for several hours today....melted a little and now more tonight.

So IF I disappear.....our power went out.

Several here have my phone number in case anyone needs to contact me.

A few who have it are Geneal, meg [I think!], Clarissa, don [I think!], Troutscout, and who else?? [several Xango folks...I'm drawing a blank here...]

Hoping not to have to deal with all that. I have an ENT appointment tomorrow in Springfield, which is iced in pretty bad right now.

I'm hoping for the best, though!! [hi]

Oh no!

You'd better get those skates out young lady!

Hope it thaws for you.

Should I rub it in by saying I got sunburned yesterday

With a high of 75?

Of course the price to pay for this is snakes (already seen two)

And ticks/nymphs showing up everywhere. [Frown]

Hugs,

Geneal

UGH! I'll take the ice!!

I'm concerned about losing power. The real concern is that last winter they lost power in Springfield and some were without power for 2-3 weeks!!!

The power lines were down all over the town of 150,000 people. Pretty hard to fix that many lines!!

It's a smaller community here, but those power line guys will be VERY busy over this entire SW MO area.

I got a pull out couch in my new place! [Smile]

And a gluten free kitchen! You're not allergic to dogs or cats are you?

Also full cable hook up-but you have to share the computer with a 17 year old-not an easy task-we set the timer for clear limits.

WHEW!!! WE made it through the night without losing power!! Yippeeee!!! It was raining hard when I went to bed at 1 a.m. And it was below 32 degrees.

Woke up to the power on!! (insert clapping hands here!)

No, betty...both places are all electric. If the power goes out...we're screwed.

Would love to own a generator!

I found out that my ENT appointment is tomorrow, not today! They messed that up, but I'm glad they did!

Springfield is still frozen. They had a lot of sleet yesterday and it's all a frozen mess.

Thanks for caring, gang! Now I need to tie up lose ends over here. Gotta order cable, internet, etc for new place. Then pack some more!!

Tutu, I asked you to quit sending that bad weather into Louisville from Missouri. Bad weather for us always comes from The Ozark area and your hometown.

We didn't loose power either. Many in city did, due to the many trees that came down. We went from tornadoes last week to 4 inches of snow and then sleet & freezing rain this week. uuuggghhh

Is winter close to being over yet? PLEASE?

Pretty crazy weather!! They said last night that there weren't many generators available in town because they had been sent to Arkansas and TN for the tornado victims.

From tornadoes to ice...oh the joys!

Sorry to have sent you more bad stuff!! [bonk]

My new place is all electric-but they said the cables were underground-and not subject to high wind/weather damage.

Still we flicker once in a while.

Glad to hear it was an electrical problem. LOL!

WEll....I don't know if it's because we're in the Ozarks and it's difficult to put the cables underground [pure ROCK] or if it's just the Ozark mindset....who knows!

Wolfie...I'm hanging in!! [Smile]

Sounds like what's s'posed to happen tonight here!
The electric lines are probably more made-for-it here, though they still come down in bad ice storms.

Imagine a place where giant clear-water lakes feed sparkling mountain rivers, ancient towering bluffs rise above rushing waters, magnificent underground caverns are preserved forever, record-breaking trout play in cool mountain streams, abundant wildlife roam in mountain forests, the night sky shines with the brilliance of the heavens.

Okay, I just "explored" the Ozarks online. Now I'm jealous!

YEP!!!!

'Cept we're on the Missouri side. It's indeed very beautiful here and USUALLY has great weather.

This is one of my favorite places. It's owned by the owner of Bass Pro Shops:

I wish they had more pics online. There are about 30 visible waterfalls there, trout in the streams, lots of wildlife including buffalo, Texas Longhorns [my fav!] and elk.....just a wonderful place!!

We went there last summer and it was literally 10-12 degrees cooler there than above the canyon. Can't wait to go back!
