I actually lucked out getting this room a guy canceled as I was standing at the desk. Every hotel is full but they are giving "storm" rates some as low as 40 bucks if you can find a room. Half the town is showering at the fitness center. So the house should be OK it is brand new construction and buttoned up pretty good. I just called the drugstore next to my house and they have power so I am going to check on the house after breakfast. If not I think worst case will be Monday. The town next to me has been told they will be lucky if they have electricity by Christmas. So I have an hour til check out and I am out of here, luckily I found another hotel I can check into at one. Same scenario I was standing at the counter as someone found out they have power.

Yep still in this shithole of a hotel eating shitty take out with the dogs and the wife. We were going to switch to a better hotel but that would have been 50 bucks more and another 50 for each dog

Glad to hear you're back in the house, everything ok inside?
We've got a bad storm coming too. Right now it's predicted to drop 12 to 18 inches between tonight and Friday afternoon, it's going to be that heavy ass snow.

Pristine :) The only problem is we moved into the house with flash lights and candles there is crap everywhere. I need to do a bit of cleaning up.

We're getting hammered by this storm. Right now there's a foot of snow on the ground but the winds are blowing that shit into drifts that are over three feet deep. Pretty much everything is closed down, the airport, the freeways pretty much every business.
I really look forward to digging out of this shit.
