      Thank God you had the vision to install a fireplace in your house. Thank God you have knowledge of electricity from your work. In the future you might try to install a restaurant wood stove and oven in your kitchen. You could build an auxilary wood fired kitchen out side your house like Bert's outside office building. The outside kitchen could be built with brick walls and light weight steel roof truses. This would preclude fire danger. God bless your whole family always. We are all children of God.

      That was caused by an epic failure in leadership in Texas. Federal regulators warned Texas that its power plants couldn’t be counted on to reliably churn out electricity in bitterly cold conditions a decade ago, when the last deep freeze plunged 4 million people into the dark.
      They recommended that utilities use more insulation, heat pipes and take other steps to winterize plants -- strategies commonly observed in cooler climates but not in Texas. So they didn't do what they were told and it was at the peoples' expense. Sorry man.

    Not seventy years, I grew up in Alaska and have seen whole neighborhoods disappear under the snow. We would have to tunnel out of our front doors. No power and everything you own buried. The blizzards would last days. We survived in the kitchen with our gas oven. Seen whole houses collapse within a couple days from the snow. And from December thru February it stayed below 20, minus the wind chill. My family still lives there and says it’s nothing like it used to be. Thank goodness.

      @AlaskanAngelz 3 года назад +2

      Exactly!!! I have lived here in Alaska my entire 41 yr's of life and we have gotten waaayyyy more snow than this dumped at once along with super bad winds. I grew up in Moosecreek out by Eileson A.F.B. and the coldest I ever seen was -69° and my dad had to take my car battery and thaw it out in the garage and charge it up because I was still required to go to work!! We got dumped soo much snow just a couple year's ago here in Fairbanks that they literally had no where to put it and were bringing dump truck loads over to this pond by my mother's house on College Rd. It's frustrating sometimes to see people tell other's that don't live in Alaska the true facts or exagerate!!

      @@AlaskanAngelz I grew up in Anchorage in the 70’s and have photos standing at the end of a tunnel on our porch after a blizzard. Every home was under ten feet of snow including anything you owned outside. Nothing moved and there was no power. I see stuff now online and laugh because these people have no idea whatsoever of what a real blizzard looks like. They pulled dead people from cars for weeks after. I was in Shugnack Alaska for several months and it dropped to 120 below with the wind chill factor. My family still lives there and says it gets to 80-90 degrees at times on their porch in Anchorage. When I was there, if it got over 65 it was a heat-wave and we were at Goose-lake swimming. Anything over forty degrees caused everyone to cut their Jean pants into shorts. lol. Regardless, living in Alaska during the winter is a full time job that’s for sure. Shovel your way in, and shovel your way out. Every day. I remember when glacier park had cabins ten miles out on the glaciers for the boy-scouts. That Glacier I am told is twenty miles offshore from the melt off. Times have changed that’s for sure. Bless

    1969, I was 4 years old; Western PA got over a foot of snow Easter morning. Dad put the chains on the tires and we make it to the church building, only to be surprised that the service was cancelled. Your video brought back 2 minutes worth of memories; it would have been more but I was very little. We LOVE your sharing live with us. Can I find out the music titles of the song about the future is bright and I'm going to make you breakfast ?

    Crazy it's been warm enough that the white bass spawn was full effect on March 1st and went non-stop until the last weekend of march and now I'm catching crappie and the spawn for them has just kicked off in the last week or so! Water is around mid 60's!
    Wouldn't be surprised if we see kid's wake boarding and tubing this weekend, seeing how it's going to be mid 80's and Sunny ☀️😎 and hot all weekend! Hopefully you guy's doing some travel and go visit somewhere warm and beautiful! You guy's deserve it 🎣🎣🎣🎣🚵🏄🚣🌼🌻🌺🌾🍁☘️🍀🌵🌴🏞️🌊🏜️🏖️⛱️🌄🌅🦩🦅🦩🦚🦃🦆🐬🦞🦀🧭⚓🚝🚂🛳️✈️🛫💒🏕️🏘️⛺🌅🌄🏖️⛱️🏝️🗺️🛣️🛤️🎣🤿🎳

    Wow, it is beautiful there. We got snow last month with that cold front that hit all the midwest. We did alright here in Wichita Kansas. Missouri got hit really bad. I'm glad you had a wonderful Easter. I loved seeing the girls singing. They were so little. Love you all and hoping you stay warm.

    Wind - we had 87 mph wind gusts for 5 straight days here. That is where you are thankful for a metal roof (snow slides). It was wild because the wind was coming from all sides and you watched the trees twist - and trees do not twist well. Glad to see that you were able to get all done and your family dinner was successful.

    Should I feel guilty because I have had my AC on for the past 2 weeks??? Hmmmmmm! Nope! But it sure is pretty there with all that snow. Just remember, those bumps in the road is what makes you appreciate whatever you get. All problems are just temporary. Loved the girls singing at the end, so very precious. God Bless You All!

    Have lived in Texas for 3 years now & as soon as it hits 70 or above I begin melting 🥵💦 I guess the 8 years I lived in Eagle River, Alaska prior to moving here to Texas caused me to be a wimp with the heat even now. I know it sucks for you guys but I'm honestly jealous of all of your snow.

    Got to love winter to live in interior Alaska. The National Weather Service recently released these stats:
    The Winter of 2020-21 had a total snowfall of 91.3 inches, which was the highest winter snowfall since 1992-93.
    We had the snowiest February to April period on record, 54 inches and far above the normal of 16 inches.
    The snow on the ground in Fairbanks reached its greatest depth at 40 inches on April 4, which was the deepest snow depth in Fairbanks since 1993.

    When the gas station is still open, it's still not bad out.
    Went to the Valero @ mile 49 on the Parks near my home in Rainbow Lakes and the crew was into a third shift and couldn't leave as nobody showed up, many years ago.

    Happy Easter to the Somers family. He is risen! I loved the girls singing at the end. So glad y'all safe with so much snow. My Aussie mind can't even comprehend snow like that. In Australia Easter is a 4 day long weekend and usually it coincides with school holidays so many families go on holidays. Camping at Easter time is a favourite activity as its Autumn and we like to take the last warm days to camp before our version of winter.

    The girls singing praise to The Savior 🙌! So uplifting, my oldest brother passed away on March 18th, he loved the Savior and Heavenly Father so much. Knowing he's celebrating Easter in Heaven this year is a blessing and he's no longer hurting. My niece had us over for dinner on Easter. My brother passed their at the house so we could really feel him there. He loved Celebrating Holy holidays with his children, and grandchildren, all the family. Hearing your girls singing warmed my broken heart! God Bless!

      I truly feel your loss in that my beloved son died two years ago at 33 right before Easter. His birthday was March 18 and he would’ve just turned 35. He died on March 27. His brothers miss him terribly, but I do believe siblings are overlooked in their grief.

    I posted a suggestion to get a roof rake. I live in Nebraska and have had to use a roof rake for several snow storms. I like a roof rake because you can stand on a ladder at the side of the house then with at least a 20 foot extention on the roof rake you can pull snow from a 20 foot semicircle and off the roof. Move the ladder, and you can extend the cleared area. For your roofs in the middle of the house, you could pull snow off the ends.
    In the UP of Michigan, roof rakes are essential to deal with the 150 inch average snowfall. Even if you can only get about half of the snow off the roof it will significantly reduce the snowload.
