Odd weather

Here in Northeastern Tennessee flooding is going down and most of the roads are passable...at least the ones I use!  I've seen reports on the tv news and from friends about roads washed out, driveways impassable and now the weatherman is saying snow is on the way!

Just spoke to a friend who said the latest NOAA weather forecast is for 6-16" of snow...more in the higher elevations...that's me!  When Superstorm Sandy hit the coast, I had a foot of snow instead of rain and high wind.  Just looked out and it's begun raining again.  Just wish it would continue with the rain...but since I have a generator and lots of food, I'm ok for days if not weeks!

Love my generator!  Ordered it 15 years ago when I first started building, but what with one thing and another, it wasn't installed until 2000!  Not even in time for the Milennium!  But we didn't need it then so everything worked out ok.  However, we have needed a few other times...like the tornado in 2011, the ice storm over April First some years ago and few other times when someone has hit a power pole!  It comes on automatically 30 seconds after the power goes out, so I stay connected with the world!

Looking forward to sharing the magic of the mountains with guests this weekend...some new and some repeats.  Like the Girl Scout song says, "Make new friends, but keep the old...."

Till next time.
