As we continue to await baby Lake's arrival, the snow and ice continue to accumulate here in Salem. Due to the weekend ice storm, thousands of Salem area residents lost power. We lost our power late Sunday afternoon (ironically, on the darkest day of the year). Jer and I enjoyed reading Shelock Holmes by candlelight and even made gyoza on our camping colman stove. Happily, we discovered Monday afternoon that the heat worked in the little apartment above our garage. So we camped out up there enjoying the dark adventure through Monday night. Today the snow continues to fall and Jer is shoveling our driveway (something we thought we'd never do here in Salem!) so we can get out to our next doctor's appointment this morning.
