February 3, 200917 yr So who is Lucky sleeping with tonight? Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "gettin' lucky, tonite?" :lol: I always thought BF would be a Pug owner!! :banana:
February 3, 200917 yr Here, the committee is trying to decide if the backyard is melted enough to launch an exploratory mission. Adorable!!
February 3, 200917 yr Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "gettin' lucky, tonite?" :lol: I always thought BF would be a Pug owner!! :banana:So many jokes...so not wanting to get killed. :popcorn: That's Rockmom's dog; mine is the other one. And it's not a Pug -- although he looks like one. He's a Jack Russell Terrier/Beagle mix.
February 3, 200917 yr I'm a little worried at the moment. RM left about an hour ago, to take Lucky home. In this weather, it's going to be a bad trip for them. Say a little prayer for everyone that has to be out in this (latest) mess.
February 4, 200917 yr Author We're home! Lucky is sacked out on the bed. :lol: Car trips are traumatic for him.

Say a little prayer for everyone that has to be out in this (latest) mess.I apologize to everyone for not posting an update when I heard from RM this evening. It took her around three hours to make a trip that took half that the first time. But with all the excitement, I completely forgot that I had posted this. Must be gettin' old. RM - Glad you two made it home safely. Wish you would have had better circumstances for your reunion; but at least it's all over now.
February 5, 200917 yr Drove through Springfield and Lebanon Kentucky yesterday... I couldn't believe the devastation from the ice storm. Power lines still down dangling from the tree branches. I felt sorry for the many farms that I passed... that appeared to be without power.
February 5, 200917 yr Author My parents in Grayson County have been told it will likely be 4-6 more weeks before they get electricity back....longer before they get their phone lines repaired. Thank the Lord for my nephew's old scout master! They brought my parents a big camping stove, and a 20lb propane tank, and the a pick up truck full of firewood! They also now have a car charger for their cell phone, and my sister that lives in Breckinridge County brought them dry ice. Life will be inconveninet for a while, but they'll be able to survive until the ground drys out enough to get trucks back out into their remote area and the repairs to the lines can be made. If no one has heard, Grayson County High School was the designated shelter. But, it was on generator. If I remember correctly, the entire 27,000 population of Grayson County was without power. They were putting people on school busses and running the busses in the parking lot to keep people warm. FEMA visit and tours there tomorrow.

Also a lot of his business is located in Grayson County. They have told me that it is really bad there. Of course, they my stomping grounds of LaRue, Nelson, and Hardin Counties aren't much better either.
