      The ice storm Monday left us without power for about 20 hours.  But we had our 6250-W Coleman generator and didn't suffer much. Our email was down for two days, and I had to melt the ice off the TV dish with a hair dryer to restore the satellite TV.  The trees and grass had 1/4 to 1/2 inch of ice, making fairy-land scenes.
