WINTER

Last week we had a HUGE ice storm. I thought Idaho was cold--but this is COLD. First was a layer of snow, then ice, then more snow. Lots of people lost power, but luckily we didn't this time.

I borrowed these pictures from the Olsens. For a few days the world was ice. Sparkly, crystal clear ice.
A lot of trees fell over from the pressure. Click on this to see the detail!
Scraping the cars...ohhhh my. Took forever.
This was ice on the Olsen's windshield. Ours was that thick, too! I broke 2 scrapers trying to get that stuff off.

And today's temperature started out at 0 degrees. BRRR.

Wow; that looks worse than Rexburg. Major bummer!
