Subject: RE: BS: After Isobel
64 hours without power, got it back just before dark today....lost some food in freezer, and got VERY weary doing stuff by candlelight, but no important damage at my place...two blocks from my house there is still a huge tree across a street with wires....and a little red car....under it. Luck of the draw....(we did have a very nice singing party at Nancy King's place, as she DID have power).....

Two blocks the other way from my house they are still dark, and some will be waiting for days....This storm caused a lot of misery and damage thru floods and power outages.
