at my place. I returned from my parents' house this morning and found that power had been restored. I made a beeline for the thermostat and switched the heat on. The house is nice and warm as I type this.
For all the hassles the storm created, it left behind some majestically pretty winter scenes. The St. Louis area got mostly ice and a little snow so all the trees got a beautiful coating of ice that glistened in the sunlight today. Some trees didn't fare so well but my oak trees stood up to the ice just fine. That's why they're OAK trees. The Bradford Pear tree that formerly stood in my front yard would have gone down, though.
