Ice Storm 2010

Kentucky seems to get more than it's fair share of ice storms. This one, as far as ice storms go, has been rather enjoyable. It is beautiful outside, but the city is still up and running. Work was on a two hour delay, but once I got out on the roads I realized it wasn't that bad. Thank god we kept power, by far the most important thing during these storms. It flickered on and off several times this morning, but as far as I know it is holding strong (knock on wood). Here are a couple of pictures.

  2. As scary as ice storms are, the aftermath is just stunning. Maybe it is God's way of telling us to slow down and appreciate nature a bit more.

    I grew up in a state where it snowed, and there was nothing like waking up the morning after a big snow storm to see the sun shining on a totally white world. It was just gorgeous the way every little branch and twig on every tree was covered in white. I miss that. (I don't miss driving on the snow-covered roads though!)

  3. We've never had an ice storm here... I don't think... we just get the snow. How beautiful! And deadly!
