This is a VERY belated "sorry to hear about your lack of electricity and crummy ice storm" note ..... it's not that I didn't know about the ice storm .... I saw it on the news ... it just didn't dawn on me that YOU LIVE THERE ..... DUH!!!<BR/>You poor things!!! That must have been AWFUL!! We were through a similar situation for 3 days (but also without water since we have well and septic .... NOT FUN!) ... so, you definately deserved your "getaway" day!!!

And, by the way, are you SURE those teenagers' families didn't have electricity? Are you sure they weren't just TELLING you that to get a break from teenagers?! ROFLOL! Just kidding!

I know what it's like to be without electricity (for a month after Hurricane Iniki in 1992)--it's NOT fun at all. But we didn't have to deal with freezing temps--so I can't even imagine what that's like. Take care and I hope your community gets back to normal soon.
