Ice Station Zebra (a bit of trivia for the movie buffs)


St. Joe has made national news by being the recipient of a major ice storm. Luckily, we had some notice so we were prepared. My husband who is always preparing for the revolution goes into hypermode during these opportunities. Filling gas tanks, water cans, checking flash lights, and stock piling milk. He loves it. Mary and I spent the the day putting the finishing touches on the Christmas tree while Katiebug took the finishing touches off the Christmas tree. All-in-all it was a great day. Tim baked "the great pie" (a bit of trivia for you cartoon fans) and we had a day of bonding with one another at home watching the ice blanket the world outside. According to the local electric company, they have 45,000+ customers and 35,000+ were without power. We have been lucky so far but we are keeping our fingers crossed hoping we don't get hit again this week - we will keep you posted.
