Glad you're okay, Cuccos.
So, after all the forecasted snow changed to forecasted ice, Tennessee got plenty of ice. The state has now declared a state of emergency. My co-worker/neighbor and I stayed up late last night watching tree limbs fall, hear the cracks of more fall that we couldn't see, and listening to the boom and watching the flashing lights of transformers blow.
After the power went out, a some people I know went to Facebook asking someone to go check on some elderly family members (with not very passable roads in some areas). It turns out they live on the street behind mine, so all I had to do is go for a short walk.
I was ready to get on my bicycle and ride around town helping on any way I could (although my wife was against it concerned for my safety, but she never said anything to stop me).
