It's Frigid at the Lake!

B-r-r-r! It's been really cold in Virginia. Freezing temperatures are not unusual here but cold spells don't usually last this long.

And now a winter storm is heading north. It has already left ice in Tallahassee and snow in Georgia and the Carolinas. Named "Grayson," it's predicted to bring high winds and snow all the way up the East Coast. We may miss the brunt of the storm because we are west of the Blue Ridge.

I hope there aren't many power outages. People who live in normally mild climates are often not prepared to live without electricity. A home with no fireplace can get awfully cold without power! We do have a wood stove, but that won't keep our pipes from freezing.

I hope all the wild creatures will be okay in this unusual weather. The geese and ducks seem pretty well adapted to it.
