Hi everyone I can sympathize with the power outages - it's inconvenient when there is no electricity, lonely when there is no phone and just awful when there is no water either, especially for hours on end. where I live outages happen frequently enough (either locally if a tree falls on a powerline, or more widespread if the grid is affected by a major storm) that we have a complete camping unit stored in the kitchen and have windup-battery/solar cell radios and flashlights. It's not too bad, we go into camping mode, and get a bit of a startle when the lights come back on, then we're back to usual almost too soon. This is well and fine if the power outage happens while we're at home - not good when transportation is affected.
Isn't it the way when there is no way to heat it, you want hot water for something the most. -- bye for now Bev in sunny Sooke, BC (west coast of Canada) Cdn. floral bobbins http://www.victoria.tc.ca/~wt912 To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
