Winter Storm 2023

 

From Feb 2 to Feb 8th we were without power due to this winter storm. Trees downed many powerlines, the transmitters were damaged and the electric company had to replace them and energize them before they could begin the process of getting the power back on. It was a terrible storm.  BUT we are all safe and have power on again. What a week! 7 days of unexpected "camping". 

 

Picture this: Me running down a dirt road in my pajamas and house shoes in the drizzling rain - running after the electric company truck. -- TRUE STORY!! That's what happened. I did catch up with him and I had to tell him of the trees on the power lines in our yard before they got the electric back on. I must have been a sight!!

 

Had a scare of a lifetime tonight too, before the power went back up - a big van with red lights flashing on top and speeding into the driveway (looking like an ambulance) then 3 more speeding trucks passing us by.. All that mess was electric trucks doing some last minute checks before turning on the power again. Scared the crap out of us! We all are fine!!
