The ice storm took it's toll on the poles throughout the Dakota's, I am sitting here in the warmth of my home.They are out there working in extreme wind chills, doing their job. Currently +8 F with a 42Mph NW wind.

We have had our power on and off in the last few days, nothing substantial. We took a drive over the weekend,to see the carnage. A radio/TV tower 16 miles west of us went  down on Saturday, numerous other towers and poles have succumbed to the ice and wind.
