Ice Storm '08

On December 11th the ice began to fall and kept on falling. About an inch of ice encased everything. We went without electricity and running water for 7 long days. National guard, power co., phone co., and tree removal trucks descended on our little town. Now everything is back to normal except for massive tree damage. On some roadside stretches of woods almost every tree is damaged or snapped in two. Disaster can bring out the best of people and show you what community is all about and for that I'm thankful. But boy there is nothing like a long hot shower.
