Missouri Ice Monster
Well, I didn't know what else to call this, but this is the result of about 1/2 to 3/4 inch of ice that we got from Sunday night until Tuesady morning. Downed trees and power lines once again, but not quite as bad as 2007 was. I lost my power for about 4 hours Monday night. Glad I had the fireplace going to keep the house warm at least.
My old 86 K10 looks pretty sad sitting there with all that ice all over her, but as soon as this crummy weather breaks I'm going to give the old girl some attention and try to get her up and running again. ...Joe

Re: Missouri Ice Monster
It is VERY COLD! Supposed to warm up to somewhere in the 40's tomorrow!
 Ice really sucks! I can handle as much snow as can fall, but this ice crap is for the eskimos!
