Spooky Time in the Woods

Well, we lost power around 2pm today. My iPhone is my only link to the Internet. The snow is heavy and if you stand outside our log cabin in the woods, you can hear a big oak tree come down in the forest about once every ten minutes. We’ve already lost at least a half dozen trees on our property, and possibly many times that number. We have no running water and i am typing by the light of my head lamp. It’s down to 58 degrees in the house. I have no idea when we’ll have power again. There are so many trees dropping that it wouldn’t stay on even if they fixed it.
