We were handed a big bag of suck with the storm that came through last night. No power until 7/2. 100 degree + temps and DC humidity should make a very pleasent experience.

Trees down everywhere. One of my neighbors' had a tree fall on the bow of his boat and crushed it slightly. Fun times indeed.

It went out at 10:45 pm Friday night. Came on for 2 hours this morning and then went out again until just about an hour ago. Life was fine with me. I was running a generator with a window a/c unit and the tv to watch dvds. Living off of the grid for 2 days! :)

I haven't had a shower since yesterday afternoon...getting stinky. Time for a shower before the power goes out again.

No loss of power, drinking rum drinks, brunching. Did have a shortage of ice for a while, that was scary.

I just talked to a cousin in South Jersey. Their power company gave them a restoration date of 7/16.
