Thanks for all the tips yesterday on heater use. Thank goodness we didn’t lose power. The only tip I have for yunz are Yak Trax for your shoes/boots. They’re like minichains for your shoes and you can practically dance on ice. I also got some for my 89 year old mom a couple of years ago and she never leaves home without ‘em in the winter. She loves them.

Good news! You were lucky. Last I heard over 100,000 without power and that was supposedly a low, early estimate.

Thanks! I’m going to check out ‘Yak tracks’! I’m glad you didn’t lose power. We also keep kerosene lanterns in the house. We are pretty much set if the power goes out. The problem is heat, since we only have the 15 lb propane containers. Those won’t last long in a real power outage! At least we can cook, with a gas stove. And we have the most important thing of all - a Coleman coffee maker!
