Just came from my parents. They live in the "stix" and they arent gonna have power for two or three days.
My dad spent the day shooting limbs off power lines with a .22 rifle. 66 and bad knees and still the hardest working man Ive ever known. Offered to bring them to my house but they are stubborn and wont come. lol oh well , gotta love em anyway.
Could have been much worse---1985 ice storm lasted 9 days and we were without power for 11 days. Cooking on a wood stove and takin "spit" baths as my mother called it--simpler times and much happier too.
