My two brothers and I were dispatched to shovel off the roof. An then the next night we got about 18 more inches of snow. When the sun came out on the forth day, we were without power and no way to get to Banner Lava Cap, except shove the long driveway. And, shovel we did for two days. We had water from the NID ditch and heat from the oil furnace, but no power for ten days.

We used the snow banks to keep our milk cool.
