the more northern part of the lower peninsula of MI got a good storm the past few days so the crews are out restoring power. still a day or two for quite a few people to have power restored. temperatures pretty cold the next day or two. glad it missed us.
that's the kind of stuff i remember from living up north too. just life. it melts eventually. the houses were built up there with the front porch and first floor about 1.5m off the ground level so you'd have someplace to shovel snow when winter kept going on and on. sometimes we'd have snow...
we had a lot of rain again last night and then this morning, but now it is cleared up and sunny and windy and cold.

the heavy rains the past few days did end up having water coming over the road and the ditches full. water coming over the road seems to be about a once in every 5yrs or so event with the worst taking place some years ago where we had...
if i move slow i'm not running over creatures or stepping on things. i try to take it easy as much as possible as i find when i hurry i'm often not really accomplishing what i want to do and i'm also often going to hurt myself or other creatures or damage things.

a lot of heavy rains, thunder, lightning and hail last night. i've not heard hail that size too often. looked like some snow on the ground but it was hail. could not see the bigger pieces that fell but i didn't go outside to look either.
