Good to hear your family is safe and that the damage was minimal to your home. I would think that your insurance would also cover cost of food loss from your fridge as it was related to the storm. Although, it wasn’t physical damage to your structure, I would still inquire. That ice storm was brutal and your home is surrounded by trees, so fortunate that the damage wasn’t worse. What a beautiful home, you are very blessed.

Thanks so much for the link! I’m glad you and your family are safe after the big storm and are “plugged in” again.

Wow! Glad you and your family are safe.
I read this morning that several thousands more in Kentucky are still without power. Maybe they will get it soon. God bless them.
The MSM and FEMA and the boys/girls in Washington haven’t seemed to care a whole lot about this storm.

Wow, expensive yes…very. Reminds me of the ice storm we had in 1998. Thankfully, our family didn’t lose power for more than 7 hours; we did have a few people over at our house for a few weeks since they lost power for 3 weeks.

Good on you that you could fix most of it though. After the storm we had we got a stove…it’s been great having a fire/wood stove.
