Ice Storm Cometh
I knew when I got home last night we were in for it. As I turned on my Christmas lights, I noticed a slight buildup of ice on the bulbs and wires. It was misting, and the temp was dropping. I rubbed my hands together and imagined waking up to a world of crystallized ice trees. I checked my camera battery, poured a glass of water, when all of the sudden, snap! The power went out. Left in darkness, I lit a candle and headed for bed. Throughout the night I was awakened many times to the sound of snapping branches. Finally a weak, dreary, morning glow revealed the power of a little mist and cold temperatures....alas, my world of ice was before me begging to get its picture taken. I was happy.

Ouch.
My girlfriends parents live near Brattleboro VT and they won't have power for about a week.
Conditions were perfect for photos! Ice storm at night and clear with full sunlight in the morning. Too bad most of the ice had melted by afternoon. However, it was a week later before we got out power back on.
