(sorry I’m late to the party, we had no power for 20 hours)

In a row?!?

>>In a row?!? <<

Yes! Storms rolled through MI at about 11:30 Sat night. The power for our block went out. The next set of storms rolled in at about 4:00 on Sunday. The power came back around 8:00pm. I guess it was a bit less than 20, but it felt like a week in the heat.

Tons of downed power lines and trees. The blessing was that the neighbors across the street (next block) had power and let us connect our Freezer in the garage with many extention cords. We were going to roll that freezer down the street to friends (of course I just went shopping!) but my very smart hubby thought of asking the one’s nearer to us. We ate cereal all day to use up the milk.

Others had generators. It was wild.
