The ice storm was on Saturday and 250,000 people in Iowa lost power.

The last one was a string of Christmas lights (the MINI's) that blew down in the wind. Here are some more. The one of my patio has a swing on it, SOMEWHERE. These are it for now.

I'm not complaining. It's not that cold out and we've been our playing. We were lucky though as we never lost our power.

Awesome pics Brenda, sure hope you all are doing fine. How much snow do you have now from this storm? We got about 6" then it poured here, so it's wet heavy snow to try to shovel, Suppose to get in the low 20's tonight so everything will freeze up then back to the mid 40's tomorrow, then low teens on Tues. Strange temps, it was almost 50 here on Wed and Thurs, then snow Thurs night

We don't know yet. It's still snowing and blowing. It is supposed to go thru tomorrow noon. I would guess about 4 to six inches right now.
