,,so as some of you might have read earlier this month my wife and me went on holidays to Europe,well when we were gone where I live got the worst ice storm in several decades,the storm took down probally 500 large branches and thousands of small ones on my property.i had to chain saw my way into my drive when we got home from our trip from hell,we spent 18 hours on planes and then 3 hours to get home from airport and then I had to saw my way in,the last thing I wanted to do after being up for 2 days,the worst thing was we lost every thing in our our fridge and freezer,every thing,the power was out for 5 days,it also blew my dishwasher,my stove because it has stupid digital dashboaerd,my dehumidifier and one of our satellite receivers,what a disappointment,probally 4000.00 dollars damage,not sure about insurance,i had to clean out fridge and freezer,i took pics of bad stuff but I doubt they will pay,to top it off I didn't like my trip,the sights in Italy were good but EVERYTHING else sucked,the people were mostly rude,the food was horrible(and that's what I went for was some good Italian food)the crowds were insane and the litter and pollution was unbeilievable,there were some nice people at the hotels,and some of the cab drivers were nice but shop clerks,ticket agents,train conductors couldn't care or less if you were there or not,i think the average people are just beat down,there economy is terrible,and they cant get ahead no matter what,we talked to many locals and they simply hate their lives,we saw so many old people homeless and begging it was shocking,i did like the old buildings and sights but it doesn't make up for it,when in venice its so nice but then you cant go near the water because of raw sewage,the smell was every where,because theres canals everywhere and so many people that you cant get away from it,we were in a very nice hotel and I couldn't open the window,i even saw the gondola operaters just throw their litter right in the water,i geuss I'm spoiled living in one of the best countrys in the world,all the food was the same.i spoke to a lot of people,mostly americans and they all said the same thing as ive just told you guys,well at least I got to go away,but for what we spent I could have bought a lot of wheelhorses
