Ice and Snow in the South

Most of my family is without power in Southern Indiana. My sister Glenda and family has been without power since 11:00 pm Tuesday night. My sister Janet and my parents have been without power since Wednesday morning. My brother Steve has power and Audrey's brother's family is staying there. Her brother has a baby less than a week old. No knows when they will get their power back.
Often when they get winter weather it is in the form of ice. They said that got 1inch of ice then came 5 inches of snow on top of that. There are many in worse shape than my family. I feel for people with health problems that depend on electricity. Then there are those who have lost loved ones because of the weather. Ice can be very beautiful on the trees but then it can be very deadly in the accidents it can cause.

It is nice to see it snowing here. Sounds bad to say that when maybe a few weeks ago I was complaining. Mainly complaining about the cold. I would like to see some fresh snow to cover up the dirty snow that is here.
Enough about the weather.........................................
