LOL. We had power but stations were closed. You couldn’t even find a gas ‘can’ to put gas in!
Its called planning ahead, we store 6 five gallon cans for our generator. I filled them a week ahead of the storm. Then again, we have gas powered cars, not ones that may need a long extension cord to power them!
Our electric company ironically is planning on extending their solar power farms citing how effective they are in Davis California. Davis is frankly in the Cal desert. We are not. I don’t get it.
