Ice on bamboo is usually a disaster, but for some reason the bamboo just bent over. It could have been because we didn't get the high winds expected. Sadly for TN and MS, they got the storm we were supposed to get, catastrophic is what they were saying. We really lucked out. I was sure we would have trees come down.From the side, looks like a giant frozen green wave. First storm was a few inches of sleet and frozen rain, not good for the snowstorm that was yet to come. I hate this stuff from my Atlanta days where I would be working on a deposition, storm hits, then trying to get home. Ice is the worst! Big surprise, we never lost power. I had plenty of firewood and supplies ready just in case.
The next week we have the snow storm, about 8 inches of fluffy, dry beautiful snow. That would have been fine if the ice wasn't underneath. A few days were brutally cold. I hope this is the last of it, I'm ready to start my seedlings for spring. My perfect temperature is 55-65 degrees with a light breeze and sun lol. Lately I've been looking at tiny houses on Amelia Island. Wouldn't hurt to be a snow bird!
The chows loved it, they would not come in. It sure makes for pretty photos!
