I think we're done with this round. That was a pretty strong storm, Ameren is reporting widespread outages in the area where we work. My office is not on the generator any longer, but thank goodness we have it.

As tired as I was of ice/snow this past winter, I'd rather have that.

We could have saved you a lot of cash. You can have bucket rides in the front loader,pull you around in a inflatable tube with the atv,etc.... We could also buy a slip-n-slide if you're into water sports.

Happy to hear that you are safe. They said on the evening news that this crap can be expected through Thursday. The heaviest they said should be Wednesday night.

Well, round 1016 left our driveway and yard looking like a battle zone from all the leaves and limbs. It looks very similar to what we had just over a year ago when the hail came through and did over $30K in damage. So far it looks like no hail this time, just wind, lots of wind.
