Memorable Christmas










We had a massive ice storm. I've never seen one
so intense. Luckily we only lost power for one day
while others lost theirs for up to five.
Here are a few pics us us in the dark(you can't tell because of
the flash) making breakfast over the fire, trying to melt
water to flush our toilet, and the sweet oil lamp
that our neighbors let us borrow. Hope this doesn't happen
again in our house in Boone because it was not
designed for this! With a fire it was 45 degrees inside!

When I first saw these pictures, the first thing I thought of was all the days outside you played pioneer! Good thing you got lots of practice in, who knew it would be put to good use. But with real food unlike the dirt pies you used to make.Like the lamp, really added to the whole atmosphere. Glad things are better now - if only that snowpile would go away huh!
