Winter update

So here are some pics from the ice storm covered with snow. See if you can notice in some of the pictures how much ice there is that the snow is on top of. The snow wasn't that bad. The ice is what caused all of the problems.




This is the creation of the 5 folks from the South. And no, that is not a beer bottle. It is a Kentucky tradition called Ale-8-1.










Winter can be beautiful, when you don't have to live in it. But it can be disruptive and deadly also. Somewhere around 25 people in the state died in this storm. I'm so glad all of the ice is now gone. I'm just wondering how long it will be before all of the trees and limbs are cleaned up.

Walking around campus at night, when the light posts were illuminated, it seemed as if you were walking around in Narnia. It was crazy.

And a piece of advice. If you have a scraper that you use to remove the ice and snow from your car, it is probably a good idea not to store said scraper inside of your car. When your car is literally covered with a few inches of ice followed by a few inches of snow, your scraper doesn't do you that much good. There is simply no getting into your car.

Hope you are all safe and warm.
