day.......out, again!....293







 We had another power outage tonight


    That is the third in the past week.  This one was for 45 minutes, not long but not short either.

    One of the people down the street said they saw blue sparks coming from the power lines on Flagg Road.  We were out, Emily was out, the people south of us were out...and I think some people in town were out also.

    In the meantime, Com Ed experienced a pole problem on 64, and crews were there repairing those lines, which put the community of Kings out of power.  Bethie, I hope you have power back now!

    After spending so much time together it seems we really don't have a lot to talk about anymore.  Not enough light to play a game, to early to go to bed, although I could have used my Kindle to read.  

    The trees and plants are beautiful and scary because of the rime frost. Or hoar frost, I am not sure which.  But there is a problem in that beauty.  It's supposed to turn into freezing rain sometime tonight and the power lines are already sagging.  More ice would be a problem.

    Same for the trees that are bending over and almost touching the ground in some cases.  They are weighted down with ice and more could be disasterous for the younger trees.  The old ones are losing a lot of branches.

    Sigh.....winter has just started too.

    Hope you are warm and toasty and healthy.

    Tomorrow I may check out generators for home use........

    Stay safe.  Wear a mask.

Peace and Love
