These are one of our two "Winter Storm" litters (IE and IF) that came a little
early.... during "The Big New England Ice Storm of 2008". NO power for 5 days!
It was a lot of work keeping Mom and pups warm and watered. We brought the Mom and
her pups inside near our wood stove, so they were warm and safe. With no power, our
well-pump didn't run so we had to bring water in from elsewhere. But, with a little
help from our friends, lots of patience and the National Grid electric crews
we all pulled through. We want to give a special thanks of praise to the power
company workers and others who came from all over America to help get power back-on
for our town. They worked in horrible conditions and ALL of who lost power
are appreciative. At a time like this, we learn to appreciate the modern convenience
of "flicking that wall switch"!
