"Nay, it [this constitution of government] must perish, if there be not that vital spirit in the people, which alone can nourish, sustain, and direct all its movements. It is in vain, that statesmen shall form plans of government, in which the beauty and harmony of a republic shall be embodied in visible order, shall be built up on solid substructions, and adorned by every useful ornament, if the inhabitants suffer the silent power of time to dilapidate its walls, or crumble its massy supporters into dust; if the assaults from without are never resisted, and the rottenness and mining from within are never guarded against. Who can preserve the rights and liberties of the people, when they shall be abandoned by themselves? Who shall keep watch in the temple, when the watchmen sleep at their posts? Who shall call upon the people to redeem their possessions, and revive the republic, when their own hands have deliberately and corruptly surrendered them to the oppressor, and have built the prisons, or dug the graves of their own friends?
– Justice Joseph Story, "Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States," Volume II, Chapter XIII: Mode of Passing Laws, Sections 900-901, pp. 364 (1833)

Friday night the lake effect hit us good with 18 inch overnight That was on top of the foot that was already there. The double deeps on 12inch stands in my back field had only 1/2 of a deep and lid showing.

There bee's and the beeks that keep them are alot tougher than us on this side of the lake. They drive motor homes out on the ice for a days fishing |

Can you believe the weather man this morning. Today it will get up to 34 then it stays below freezing the rest of the week with more ice/snow tomorrow. All the roads are closed here now. I wish you yankees would keep your cold up there. Where's the global warming? 1 inch of ice on I - 285? I feel sorry for all the truckers stuck on the interstates this morning.

I feel sorry for my bees!! The bottom entrance is covered with snow!! I don't know if I should clear it or leave it as insulation. I doubt they'll be flying anytime soon. They have an entrance at the top as well.
I know they had plenty of stores going in, but I am really worried about the size of the cluster with all of this cold. I know there is nothing to do but wait and see, but gah that is soo frustrating and sad! I wish I could bring them in and put my arms around them to keep them warm!
here's hoping for an early spring and some warm days soon!
love,
ziffa

Here is a video of a guy ice skating down Peachtree Street in Atlanta from the "ice over the snow storm".
Just something you don't see down here. (someone who owns ice skates )
Found more. Maybe they found a sale on skates? |
