The ice storm of 2007 kept Nye and Cal indoors. We kept busy watching weather reports and Finding Nemo, reading lots of books in front of the fireplace, and making rice krispy treats and homemade pizza for sustenance.
We awoke this morning to one of our Spanish Oak trees lying across the stairs leading to our front door. Hours later, as Nye was picking the icicles off the car in the back, one of our trees surrendered to the ice and keeled over … on top of Nye. Fortunately it was only the very tip top that knocked him over, but he fell face first into the mud – poor soul.
Both boys seem to be getting sick; it’s all runny noses, coughs and humidifiers over here. Perhaps our sabbatical from work and school will go on ....
