Don't curse the darkness


An early morning thunderstorm caused a power outage. At the four hour mark, I decided to go for a drive - charge my phone in the car and buy lottery tickets. I can still lift a double garage door! Picked up some hot coffee from McD and stopped by my son's old house to check out a tree limb that had fallen onto the neighbor's fence. By the time I got back home, the power was back on. Lights on, fridge humming. Oh, and I found an old radio and actually had enough AA batteries to break the silence while I waited.
