Oh Strat be praised. Power came back on at about 3am last night!! Man, I can use it too. A hot bath is in order as my back is on fire from splitting logs and lugging them up three flights of stairs for the past couple of days. Oh the joy of being able to flush a toilet!
Many are still out around us. Went to eat with a friend last night who had a house full of Korean students who attended a nearby University without power. They are saying it will be WEEKS before they are able to repair the damage. A city 10 minutes away has a curfew in place and, I just learned, their Walmart shut down driving everyone into ours. Here, no bread, only small-size batteries (only saw ONE pack of C batteries in the whole store), water and propane are both sold in limited quantities now.
Yes, my friends, pretty as they might be, ice storms SUCK!!!
