Today was a little better than yesterday. We still have power, despite the numerous outages around us. Later in the day we had internet and cell coverage. We, unfortunately, no longer have the three trees on the side of our house. My mom is pretty upset about it. The birds loved eating the berries in these trees, the hummingbirds hung around them in summer, and the trees provided some privacy. We were all hoping the neighbor's big leaf maple would fall down, so we could have a clear view of Mt. Rainier year round, but things don't seem to work out like that. Heavy winds are expected this week, and our power is flickering, so there's still a chance for more downed trees and power outages.
Throughout the day, the ice started melting slowly and began falling off the trees. This was just as dangerous as the falling branches. It also started raining. We did get a chance to go out and have one last round of fun in the snow while it's still here.
