Yeah!! We survived!!!












Although this is not a picture from the winter/ice storm that we just had last week, it gets the point across!! It was a rather scary night, hearing all the crackling and falling limbs!
Scottius said that he would not like to be with me during a hurricane!! :) (I would not like to be with me either in a hurricane! I am not that adventurous!) I tried very hard to be calm, but it is a little unnerving having a couple of huge trees near our house and wondering if they were going to fall on top of us!! Thanks to God we only had limbs down in the yard and not on our house! It has been amazing to see the devastation all over our city though - some people had huge trees just topple over or split in half! Power is restored in most of the city from what I hear. Now some of the tree companies are making a big hunk of money, cutting down trees, etc. One couple we know paid $6000 for one tree company to cut down three trees in their backyard!! That is highway robbery if you ask good old Lucy!!
