Ice Storm Destruction

Took some pictures of the destruction resulting from the big ice storm my folks' had a couple weeks ago. Some of it has been cleaned up, some hiding underneath the snow. It's just lucky that none of this fell onto their house! It is also lucky they had a wood stove to keep warm with during the six days they were without power. My Aunt Mary, who is a hearty 90+ years old, lost her power for three days, and had no heat! She said the house got down to 38°F (yes, inside!).

Mommy & Daddy's Fridge


This is the emptiest I've ever seen my parents' refrigerator. In the recent ice storm, they lost their power for six days, and all the stuff in their fridge and freezer went bad. Well probably there was a lot of "mystery" stuff in them anyway...

Good Morning!


One benefit to naked trees is that I can now see the sunrise from our office window...

Free lightbulbs showed up on our doorstep :)


Don't know who left these on our doorstep today, but it sure was nice of them. We will put these to good use in Hawaii.

Making cranberry sauce


We are going to an early Thanksgiving get-together tonight hosted by a vegetarian. I'm making Thanksgiving wraps with sliced turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce for the carnivores... And some wraps will be sans- turkey for the herbivores. :)

Scavenger Hunt Fun!


On Saturday, our friend Thad organized a scavenger hunt which took place at the Pearl Ridge Mall (both uptown and downtown sides). He put together a four page list of items for us to hunt for, and we went out in teams of two to photograph ourselves with as many of the list items as we could find. At the end, we all reconvened at Bandito's for dinner, birthday cupcakes (it was sort of Thad's birthday), and scoring. Kenji and I came in third place. But we got the award for Best Photo (me posing with the mannequin.
 
The photos might be in reverse chronological order, but whatevers.
