So we got really slammed by this ice storm. Giant old trees down everywhere, no power obviously. I talked to a policeman yesterday who said we would be without power for 3 days minimum, probably more like a week. I guess all of the main power lines coming from Milford, NH, are completely destroyed, and the little ones aren\'t in much better shape.
I don\'t mind this at home really. It\'s kind of fun. I have a wood stove, so I can keep warm and cook food. But this really sucks at the barn. We have 25 horses who go through a LOT of water, and now that the power\'s out the well doesn\'t work. We have gone through all of the water on the farm now. So now we have to lug water by bucket from a brook that\'s through the woods and down a hill. I cannot tell you how much this sucks.
