Rough Weekend?


I got a message last night at work. "Gretchen, call your dad at the shelter." Poor mom and dad. Thursday evening their power went off due to ice storms, etc. Sunday evening, their power was still off. And dad had food poisoning. They were sleeping at the church where my dad preaches, and this had become their "make shift shelter". To add insult to injury, my mom's Valentine's day roses had frozen, along with the water in the vase. Hopefully, the power has been turned back on by now. Snuggle up close tonight, mom and dad.

Dad, John

That all sounds pretty miserable. By the way, what is that a picture of?

We never lost power but Greenville had a water main break on Sunday and we still have to boil our water before using it.

So is it really cold in Michigan, these days, or what?
