Ok so the beginning of the week had us mopping up the floor and the end of the week had us using our generator to power the freezers.
Thursday night a loud bang was heard and boom no power. We looked out the window to see a large limb of our front pine hanging on our phone line. They stretch, did you know that? By morning it had snapped and the front yard was full of FROZEN debris . and Lots and lots of tree branches. No power was to be had until 6:30 Saturday night . Yup that was a personal record for us at 43 hours without power.We were warm and had generator power at least . So that was good and the kids thought it was fun too.there were a total of 500,000 people in southern NH without power and today there is 182,000 still without power. I count my blessings that we heeded the warning of being prepared. They said this was the largest power outage in NH since 1954.
Everything was Ice, every where. It was really beautiful, actually, to drive around and look at.

I've been thinking of all our NH friends and wondering how you were faring with the storms. The kids are put out that you've had all kinds of interesting weather since we've left. They feel like meteorological jinxes! We've had a bunch of snow this week, but they don't cancel school here, so it's pretty much life as usual. Merry Christmas!
