How appropriate for me to read this one tonight.
AT noon today our power went back on. It had been out since 2am Monday.
Temps are in single digits....and in our area it is mostly ice...branches breaking off of trees landing on power lines..."Winter isolation" a sure thing.

Been there done that moved far south so as not to feel it again. Short ut most effective a powerful penning in ink that freezes the tongue
