Subject: RE: BS: ICE - the winter kind
We're still hanging in here with power, 20 miles up the Kennebec River in Richmond, Maine. But my mother down on the coast is cut off with downed trees; her back-up propane generator kicked in and is doing its thing. Her phone lines are also down but she managed to get through to me on the cellphone, although it's kind of hit of miss service. One of her near neighbors actually walked up her driveway to make sure everything was alright and reported back to me.

I hate to think what will happen to all this slush in the parking lot and on the walks when the temperature drops this evening. The resulting glacier will probably probably last until May!

Jeri-

You're lucky you can still post to Mudcat. Do you also have a back-up generator?

Amos-

#@***!
