OT -- Well folks, we survived the Ice Storm of '09 (we were among the lucky ones)

As you guys may or may not have heard, Kentucky and other parts of the country suffered a severe ice/winter storm this week causing the whole state to be declared a state of emergency. That's why you didn't see me on here because although we were very fortunate to have lost our electricity for only Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, we did not get our internet service back until last night. But me and my wife are hanging in there and we're just fine. Unfortunately though, there's a couple surrounding counties that were the hardest hit (and one was asked to evacuate because it could take a few weeks to get electricity back. I do have to say that this at least as bad if not worse than the Lexington ice storm of 2002 or 2003.

Anyway, just wanted to let you guys know how we're doing in case anybody was wondering.

Im glad your OK as well Estil, electricity is one thing we take for granted that is for sure!

We are dealing with Artic temps and Ice & Snow as well in the Northeast.

We had a bad Ice storm last year here in Kansas so I know what you're dealing with. Hope everyone stays warm there and the electricity is back on soon.

Glad to hear you and your wife are well. I am from the Buffalo area and know how bad these storms can be. I always tell myself at least it is not a hurricane, earthquake or tornado. Usually, you just have to ride those storms out.
