A Woodhouse Weather Weekend

This weekend, as I hunkered down in our living room fort to escape a historic D.C. blizzard, my family joined with members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to clear mud, water, and debris from our house, driveway, and street in the Southern California mudslides. Here are some pictures.



We built a fort.



The snow was so high that we couldn't tell where the street was.



I built a snowman, but only a small snowman because it was cold.



Fortunately, my parents' house is still standing and members of the La Crescenta Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints spent an at least 14 hour day digging out my family's house and our neighbors houses. Thanks to them we will be able to leave if the storms continue and there are more mudslide risks.



"But ye will teach them to walk in the ways of truth and soberness; ye will teach them to love one another, and to serve one another." Mosiah 4:15 (in the Book of Mormon)

  1. I just have to tell you that thanks to the snowstorm and all the other milk being sold out, I now have my very own jug of Harris Teeter organic ultra pasteurized milk. And so obviously I thought of you.
