Yup, this ice is pretty crappy.

Half my tree is in my neighbors yard. All of my neighbors trees are in the streets. No electricity nor phone.

40 year old trees, snapped like twigs.

If you walk out side you can actually hear and watch some of the big limbs still falling.

It looks like a war zone!!

Im glad to be at work; we have heat, internet, power, microwaves and did I mention heat?

Bummer. Sorry to hear about that. I heard about it on news radio today and right away thought of our OK. members. Hope your home stays intact. Good luck and try to stay warm..... Just live at work. Most of us kind of do any way. :lol:

another day and still no power.... they say 3-5 days for us, and for those who live outside the city limits up to 10 days.

Grabbed my dads broken generator and fixed it last night.... Its a small one, but it keeps the fridge cool

Gunna take months to clear the streets... its crazy

welp...its been 8 days so far...

just last night I saw 2 trucks for the clean up crew.

I didnt take any pic's, they just wouldnt say enough of what happened.

This computer at work takes like 5 mins per page to download, so that kinda sucks too.

Hopefully I have power by the time I get home......HOPEFULLY!!

Yeah I know what that's like, man. We had no power for 8 days here in 2000 or 01' we had gas and wood heat, though, so it's all good. least it's easy to keep your beer cold... but if ya leave it outside overnight, ya may need a shovel to find it in the mornin! :lol:
