Ice, ice, baby!

We woke this morning to ice.  Doug and I ran out briefly to make a couple of brief stops last evening and the freezing rain had started.  By the time we got home my car was covered in a layer of ice.  The drive is covered in ice.  We won't be venturing out any time soon.  I'm thankful it is Saturday and I have no where to be.  I ventured out in my house shoes this morning (carefully!) to take some photos.

Of course we need to go to the grocery.  I did have all of the fixins for a quiche.  A nice day to stay in my pajamas.

You got walloped with ice. My daughter in Indy got some too. I am about 70 miles west and got several inches of snow. I'd rather have snow than ice, but none of either would really suit me.

Yep, that's where I would be...still in my PJ's and hunkering down. Stay off those nasty roads!
We got a bunch of snow and now it is melting fast...next we will have flooding...ick. I ran errands and got food...I am good.

That handrail pic is so pretty, but I sure would be looking out a window at it. Have a safe weekend.

We got 5 inches of snow with the storm. But I remember all the ice we got last year. Scary stuff. Stay safe. Love the pics.

We got 3 more inches of snow. No ice, though, thank heavens. Roads are bad enough with out that!

Oh wow, that looks so cold!!! Glad you didn't have to venture out in it today. I was thinking about you yesterday morning when I went out in the cold to feed the chickens...and wondered how you felt about taking care of them in the winter!!!???
