    Original post

    Wednesday at 4 am, it hit. First was the flickering, then everything powered by electricity went out. The culprit, pouring rain that froze on everything. About an hour ago, after being told that Sunday would be the day electricity would return, the electricity returned early! After hitting 48, the house is now at 55 degrees and climbing.

    That is why there was no update of the Home Page for today. There will be no update for Friday either. I will spend the rest of the night thanking everything greater than me, so I will be quite busy.

    It is amazing how good a cup of hot coffee feels. Same thing for the touch of hot water. I look forward to a hot shower tomorrow. Anyway, I'm more thankful for the little things in life after this experience.

    Bob, thanks again for all you do for us. We tend to take you for granted and forget that there is a real live human behind the curtain. We do appreciate you.

    For the next 24 hours, a nor'easter will spread snow, sleet, rain, and winds of up to 50 mph. If the Home Page is not updated for Friday, the power here is out.
