| National Disaster Area Everything was covered in ice. The power was out for days. No TV, no e-mail, no heat. It was a huge disaster in my book (yes I realize there are far worse things that could have happened). At any rate, living in a house that was covered in ice and surrounded by ice, let me just tell you that it was pretty nippy. Anyway, I took some pictures to "freeze" the moments. (Ha!) Some of them are pretty dark, but it's ice I swear! |

| This was our make-shift refrigerator during the storm. My mom said the milk tasted really nice and cold. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The tops the trees pretty much broke out. There was a lot to pick up after the ice melted. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Here's another look at it. See the branches on the ground there? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This used to be a tree. Two years ago lightning struck it and it turned into a bush. Look at all the branches from the tree across the street. I couldn't sleep because I kept hearing the cracking. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Everything was covered in ice. Bushes. Grass. The sidewalk. The driveway. Everything. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This is the neighbor's house. Check out the iced grass and chainlink fence. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This is the ice I chipped off my car. It took me over an hour to get it all off, and even then there was still ice. It was an inch thick. I probably would have been inside the car a lot sooner if I would have realized it was locked. I just thought it was iced up. But noooo! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I can't stress it enough. There was ice everywhere! I tried to cover up my windshield with that blanket so ice wouldn't cover it too badly. It worked, but it was all wet when I took it off. So I set it aside. It froze to the brick. Oops. Also, I fell on those steps there. Just like skating. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
