Not only do we live in a 145
year old cabin, but yesterday
we went through some 145
year old experiences.

We had seen men installing
telephone poles, so losing
our electric was no surprise.
That came throughout the
afternoon and evening as
the outage lasted eight and
a half hours.

Funny how you do so many
things by rote. I put in a load
of wash, no electric! Went to
get a beer out of the fridge,
no electric! In the jane, tried
to flush, no electric!

On the fun side of these dark
hours, a fire in the fireplace
and candles glowing every-
where. So beautiful. Even
better, our friends came over
to see how we were faring
and we enjoyed the p.m.
together.

Funny . . . we were sound
asleep when the lights came
on. Go figure!

Sooooo, today we have electric
but I have to go to the dentist.
Methinks I'd rather have lights 
out!
