We have 18” dia light tubes and skylites, plenty of light.

I grew up in Iowa and remember some of the blizzards we had, some were just cruel. Sounds like this one is another where people will remember where they were when this got going.

Good luck and have plenty of water.

No problems here. We’re cozy around the wood stove and well-provisioned pretty much no matter what it does outside.

Not bad in western ND tonight. We got our 17 inches of snow yeaterday. I must be getting old, cause I finally bought a snow thrower.

Good deal, sounds like you are prepared and can handle this.

All that snow will help insulate the house.

Not much happening here in North-West Lower Michigan, on Lake Michigan, tonight. Gusty winds, but no snow. Gaylord will probably be buried though.
I did buy a new Diehard Gold battery for the plow truck-just in case-tonight.

Thanks...it’s been a five year project, so far. It is a great residence.

Your house is just beautiful. I love your fence. My husband won’t let me have the decorative privacy top that you have. He says the neighbors will think we’re anti social. UH, that’s what I want them to think. LOL.

I can’t imagine having snow like that. A southern girl here, I get my thrills from looking at other’s snow.

Again, the house is beautiful. You all did a fantastic job.

"I love your fence."

Here is a visitor, a Barred Owl, to the fence in its early stages.
