Thanks Sharon, and I certainly return those sentiments to you!
Actually this storm was, sorry for the pun... a real ice breaker! Our house is 1/2 mile from the road and the drive approaching the house is so steep, it's impossible today to get up to the house. THEN, the house has decks everywhere and steps, steps, steps. We have yet to learn the secret (meaning wood) to getting them cleaned off properly so they are usable. So far a broom is the trick.
I am hoping Santa's sleigh comes and picks up this commission that is for a Christmas gift, because I have no idea how to get out of here. But this is a nice way to be stranded!
Mike you and the babes... never ending!

Oh how I miss Florida!
