Scary Drive home

It was a slippery drive home on Friday, I was surprise that the icy conditions persisted well south of Roanoke. In the end it took us an hour and half longer than usual but the reunion with our warm house was a good one, until Anne discovered that I had inadvertently turned off the power to both our freezers. The smell emanating from the freezer inside the house was not friendly at all. Even now, two days later and despite a pan full of odor eating cat litter and little pots of ground coffee scattered inside the fridge, the rotten smell still persists. The freezer that was outside fared better as it was colder. I figure that we lost about $150 dollars worth of good meats, including some great wild boar roast that I was looking forward to. Still we are alive and well.
