We had another winter storm. Hopefully our last for this year.
This heavy wet snow snapped power lines & toppled poles.
We do have a wood stove, so I cooked an old fashioned dinner of scrambled eggs with sausage & potatoes mixed in and a pan of fry bread.
We ate by oil lamps
ok. so maybe I shouldn't tell you we were in shorts and t-shirts and the boys actually got a little bit of a sun burn today ....
ReplyDeletestay warm!
I am sun burned too, from mowing the grass. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a Happy Easter.
Sounds like home on Cricket Flat!
ReplyDeleteHate when the power goes out, but it sure is nice when you still have a stove that is usuable for the cooking. We finally have a generator even though we have to hook it up to the big tractor to run. Makes you appreciate the power we have. Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteI think evenings like that are fun, as long as they don't stretch into to many days. Hope your storm is gone and spring will be at your house shortly.
ReplyDeleteYou won the Story Time Stitches prize package! Yay!!
We did a generator several years ago, too. Old trees, old poles, old lines. Sounds like a good adventure. I'm ready for spring, but I usually like a good snow day or two to 'veg out'.
ReplyDeleteSometimes that's fun for a day or two. But after that....forget it!
ReplyDeleteI hope it has melted off and the power is back on by now.
