Ice, Ice Everywhere - the pictures


ok - I promised some pictures once I had power and was up and running again. Here are some pics from my apartment and from my office at Kansas State University. There is still ice on the trees because of the low temps and there are still about 5900 people without power in Riley County. There are also many more without power across the state. I'm very grateful to have power and be up and running again. There are line crews from all over the country and they've been working night and day. It's amazing.

The craziest thing about an ice storm is that it's incredibly beautiful while it's incredibly dangerous. Here are some pics and the next post will be back to stamping stuff! :)

Wow! That's scary, but what gorgeous pictures! It looks so beautiful (even though it caused so many problems!). I'm glad you're ok and have power again.

Wow, thanks for sharing the pictures of the ice storm. It is really pretty and hard to comprehend in Ariozona too.

Wow, your pictures are very pretty even though the ice causes so much destruction. We weren't hit that bad with the ice in our area . . thank God for that. I am glad to hear your power is back on. That can be torture for sure! Take care, Kelly :)
