So, yeah, TinyTown was hit pretty hard with the ice storm that blasted through the Midwest last week.

Luckily, I was only without power for about 12 hours, which was entirely long enough for me to know I'm not cut out for pioneer life - I need my computer, my TV, my stereo, and god knows, my furnace. ;-)

We were socked in for three days, and the library was closed during that time. Afterwards, however, I went out to survey the beauty - and the damage - that was left in it's wake...
