Captain's Blog: Ice Storm Power Outtage

Winter of 2011 has so far been a big bummer! We have had snow on the ground and ice in the trees and sub-zero temperatures that make you cold by just thinking about going outside. The latest punch in the face was losing out power at about 8 o'clock on the Tuesday night of the storm.

It was reminiscent of the loss of our furnace when Connor was a baby. We all snuggled into our beds, but with temperatures dropping to 58 degrees by morning at the house, we packed up and shacked up down in Churchtown with Mimi and Papa (gracious hosts yet again).

Dad worked, Mom and Finn relaxed and Connor terrorized the neighboring counties...ah memories...
