Status quo revisited.

Power was re stalled at 4.17 in the PM our way, the area down the road a bit, around NG office and the hotel, had to wait a little longer, 33 hours and change for us.

Not that people are doing hand stands and yelling halleluiah, not by a long shot. I don’t think it presumptuous of me in saying that most people are darn right pessimistic about the upcoming winter and what fates await vis a vis the hydro service.

There were several anecdotal accounts of what caused the latest outage, “sparks spraying all over the place” was one, and another had “the sky lit up like it was daylight”.

This was the area of the “sparks”, newly installed, mind you old equipment.

well, at least you can put food outside instead of needing a fridge plugged in all the time, just like my Hungarian gypsy neighbours did a couple of winters ago!
Trip to Florida coming to an end soon, 11 days left. Boohoo!
we rented a little house right by the ocean, off season prices, cheap!
