The aftermath of this last mid January blizzard left bigger drifts!
The blizzard in the middle of December was zero visibility!
Oh, Oh! After this last blizzard, it's going to be awhilebefore eating outside is possible!
The second (or third?) blizzard with God's creative artistry!
Sunrise on the 29th, a very cold day!
And a beautiful, bright sun dog soon appeared!

Can you please pray urgently that the rains and storm will stop and we will get sunshine. This storm has caused the death and destruction to people's lives. For all those affected to get help and relief during this storm. For all the homeless people and those who are affected by this heavy storm which has lost lives. That our house roof will not fly off as some roof sheets have already flown off and that our roof will stop leaking and that ours and other people's electricity will be restored soon and that our's and other's electricity, water or phone connection will not be lost. That we will get a honest good carpenter soon who will fix our roof properly so that our home will be protected from the storm and not get wet. Thank and praise God that we have been not badly affected. As its difficult for my parents who are elderly in this weather for them to be especially protected during this storm at home and when they travel. For the good health, peace of mind and protection of those affected by the storm, my parents, children and myself. Praise and Thank God .Amen.
