We are back in business

This computer is really slow today but at least we have power again. After using a very small generator that Anatole borrowed from a friend to keep the food from spoiling we finally got our power back. We had the generator for a few hours on Saturday and we didn't lose a bunch of food. It's true when they tell you your freezer can last for a while without power. Power went out with the "storm of the decade" as described in the paper on Friday morning at about 6am. I'd already left for work and was kind of excited thinking we had made it through most of the storm with power intact but that was not to be. We were without power for about 42 hours. Pretty cool sitting in candlelight and playing games.
