Ya, I loved it when we had no electricity for 8 days after a hurricane. Talk about a learning and growth experience. Unfortunately we had a gas stove and gas water heater so we didn't get the full learnig and growth experience we could have. We were still able to shower and eat.

Hurricanes are probably what started my interest in being prepared, as a kid my mother had to keep the stuff we needed for those long black outs.
As an adult the 12 days I went without electricity after Alicia was no big deal for just one example.
Once a father has tried to teach his family about what to do during a preparedness situation it is always a good idea to test them with a three day total utility shutdown.
Teenagers and wives especially sometimes need to see the reality before they start really paying attention.
