Home Camp 313
Three weeks, three bad storms. Much strong wind, some sloppy, heavy, wet snow. Maybe 4 for 4 next week. Power out, cell tower out, network out.
Again.
Warmer at work, hot water, hot drinks. Very few people to do alot of work. At least I didn't have to take an unpaid day, but exhausting.
I shoveled some foot n a half deep stuff off the garbage dock n front walkway.
On the way in I'd spotted two wires down on different roads causing a double detour, plus a tree on top of a truck length-wise in it's driveway. Unable to stop for pics tho.
Work parking lot had a tree down in it, but before folks arrived. So many local trees down now it's crazy! The ones around this house are still up amazingly.

Back home after work - returning to dead quiet. No cooking, no shower, no tv. I hooked up a Dollar Tree speaker to my little pocket radio for a little, civilized, background noise.
Power finally came back up here, a day later (Yay not 3 days again),but some folks in town will have to wait a bit longer.
I always feel like I'm camping here, anyhow. TG for battery devices!
The power out drill is getting so old...
To the Irish, a Happy St Patricks Day.
Green pics here for you.

Hoping for sunny weather soon and warmer breezes. YOu deserve it.
Just remember that what goes up must come down and that it has to be spring again sometime
Tabor, Looks like a chilly week ahead, but as long as no shoveling is involved, I'll take it. Thanks
Gran Annie, "... Spinning wheel has got to go round... " n Seasons will turn. It's been a very stormy month so far! I'd like to trade the Lion for the Lamb soon! Thanks. Didn't get to comment on yours this week, No library! No clear sidewalks either!Thanks
And here I was thinking you were looking for more snow.
Hope all gets warmer for you.
Spring is just around the corner, even though it probably doesn't feel like it.
Ellis, It was a foot n a half! Major clean-up due to the cement-like weight to it. Still have piles all over, but roads n shoveled paths are clear of ice now at least! Pretty frozen here this week.
Lynn, Thanks, it is tough to wait thru this time of year. Your plants are way ahead of ours!
DIY entertainment. Would have been a good time to get in some quality moments with your instruments.
We got one more storm that'll be hitting us soon. Can't wait for Spring to be sprung.
Neo, The house was full of people, n after work it would wake them up. The owners grandkids n kids downstairs were here. I like when no one is home better!
G.B., unbelievable this year! Hope you get a break this round. Looks a bit warmer for us here, 3 am n school isin't cancelled yet! Spring get a move on over here! Enough shoveling already! Me too! Thanks
