Things That Go Crack in The Night
It was all the Shankster and I could do to shut our eyes last nite. Each little snap & crackle we heard kept us on edge. Finally at daylight we decided it didn't get any worse over nite and decided to pull on our boots and get out the chainsaw and handsaws. The Shankster had went out yesterday to get Homie's paper and made it out the front door and down the front hill with no problem and he was actually in his house slippers! So today he was sure it would be no problem to go out the front door again to get around to the back deck to get working on the mess on the back deck.
Think again....He made it to here........
Then landed here......
Not sure if you can see, but there is a thin layer of snow on top of an ice rink. We knew we got more ice, but it is sure not noticeable...until you slip and fall.
Homie and I heard him and tried to go and help him, but he told us to stay. Finally he was able to slide over to the porch and roll onto it. He said he only hurt his butt, shoulder and pride. But is asleep now so I know he has hurt more. I'm hoping he will be able to sleep it off ok.
More pics of the back deck......We have decided to wait for the ice to thaw before trying to clear it.
I hope it missed my grill....:(
This Pine is at the bottom of the hill, the top is broken off the one on the left.....Can't see it on the ground in the pics, but we got the binoculars out to make sure it wasn't in the road.....not that too many people are driving in this as we are under a #1weather emergency....but luckily it isn't....so it will have to wait a bit to be cleared up also.
