My father has no power and they are telling people they may not get their power back on for a week
Many people around here are going to be without power for at least a few days.
I'm ultimately grateful for the ice storm in '08 and the Asian longhorned beetle infestation
of the following spring/summer. My street has very few trees left to pull down any more
power lines, which means
we may get through this winter without losing power.
