SNAP-CRACKLE-POP

After dodging winter from Nov.-Jan., we finally got hit about two weeks ago. We are pretty far south, so that meant temps from 30's to teens and our first real snow last week, about 4-6". We get few snows and people around here drive really bad in the snow! Yesterday we had a little snow and our first Ice Storm. The ice was so heavy last nite I could here branches snapping off like gunshots. I've not been out yet today but can see from the windows at least a dozen huge branches off several large trees that surround our property! The biggest is a 3-branch limb about 10-12' long and about 10" in diameter where it split from the tree. At least the house is OK and I haven't heard from my two sons yet so I assume they and their families are OK. Anyone have a chain saw and need some firewood?????????

Wow, 4-6 inches? We have 4-6 feet. Bet you feel better now. As long as no tree branches damaged the hot tub, that's all I'm worried about. Wish I were sitting in it now...
