culprit


This tree is the reason I was unable to post for 4 days previous. 8000 residents were out of power for 3 days in the Prince George area due to a wind storm. Our home was out of power and telephone. We have a small generator which ran several lights (and the fish tank). Our wood heater kept us warm and we cooked outside on the propane campstove. The romance of the situation wore off after about 24 hours and the family was so greatful to have power restored on Tuesday.

The fish tank took precedence over the computer? Where are your priorities? ;-)

Sucks to be you guys. One tree, 8000 people, one power company. Which means that one tree has more power than 8000 people!! I wonder if that tree had to pay for services while it was consuming all the power...while the 8000 people had to live like trappers. I wonder how many thought they could do that for the whole winter and give up their power? Things that make you go hmmmmmm....
