Set Back !

We enjoyed our long overdue trip to Florida and Myrtle Beach and North Carolina, got home and settled in to wait for the arrival of Spring, we had a terrible snow storm as you can see from my earlier post !
.

. Well, things went along fine until Sunday night, we went to bed about 10PM, I laid down and my heart started to pound,  got up and took Blood Pressure and it was sky high and my heart rate was over 120,   My honey called 911 and within 3 minutes they were at our door.
.
While talking to the 911 dispatch my honey gave me 4 baby aspirin, I chewed them up, then I took a Nitro Tab, and was loaded on a strecher.
.
I was taken to Carthage Area Hospital as fast as possible, to the ER Room, put me in a IV, pumped some Nitro Glycerine into me, and later admitted me to ICU!
.
My Heart Doctor came in, I had some medications administered, put on bed rest, I came home last night and got to sleep in my own bed!!
.
I had another Angina attack, I had my last one on November 5th or 2016 so have done pretty good.
.
Right now I am home, resting and taking it easy for a few days, It's OK as the temps outside are 8 above and it goes up to 12 degrees, we do however have nice weather coming.
.
Just gonna take it easy for a while.  Hope everyone is doing OK!!!! 
.
Remember our Veterans !!!!!  
 

.

Holy Snow !!!

WOW !!!    We are used to getting Snow Storms, Blizzards,  usually in February and March,  however we usually don't get hammered for several days.
.

.
   We started getting this storm "Stella" last night, it has snowed and snowed and still coming down.  
.

 .
Above we were standing on the Lake Okeechobee Look out down near Lakeport !
.  
Maybe we should have stayed longer in Myrtle Beach of Florida !!!
.

.
There is lots of accidents, this was coming into Carthage, there is now a No Travel Advisory posted.  
.
They have now banned all Tractor Trailers off the Interstates and Thruway as the winds and white outs are really bad.
.

.
This is outside our Window about 25 feet away, White Outs blow in and you cannot see anything except white snow, like staring into the center of a white sheet.
.
We normally do not have frequent Cardinals visit our Bird Feeder, right now today we have several pairs flying in and out along with lots of other Birds feeding !
.

.
 A Cardinal and a Gold Finch are feeding like they are starving !!
.

.
The Female Cardinal is also hungry !
.

.
A Rare picture of a male and female Cardinal feeding together, usually 1 eats and 1 stands guard.
.

 .
My little Honey caught me off guard, Watching it Snow and watching the Birds made me tired !!!!!!!!
.
Right now it is snowing and Blowing, everything is cancelled for tonight and there is also some costal flooding planned with the mid winter winds coming in !
.
We are tucked in nice and warm and are not planning on leaving the house tomorrow either.
.
DON'T FORGET TO HONOR OUR VETS !

Enjoying Ourselves!!!!!!!

  5 years ago we attempted to get to Florida to spend some time away from the cold,  We left Carthage and in 6 hours were in Clarks Summit, PA just off I-81where we stopped for the night, during the night I didn't feel good, My Darling wife had the good sense to pack us up and head for home.  She was a Trooper and drove us straight home.  I went directly to the Hospital with 2- 95% Blockages in the Heart which they fixed with surgery.
.

.
It seemed that every time we tried to get south for the next 5 years I  or My Honey had a Health Issue.
.
This year we went for our January check-ups at the Doctors and said, "Let's go for it", and we headed out for a trip south, we were only going to Myrtle Beach But in South Carolina we changed our minds and went to Florida and we really are enjoying it.  
.
