We and one other couple were the only ones to Bug Out, there are 8 couples in our little gang. We found out a big difference during that time. The people whos home we were invited to treated us as if they knew us their entire life. That is not exactly the way we were accustomed to. They told us it is The Southern Way. It was the Mom & Sister and Husband of our friends. They even accepted our pup Barney and loved him to pieces also. Their cooking took most of the anxiety out of not being at home. We ate like we were going to jail the next morning.
We headed back when we found out the power on my street had come back on but it was out when we got home. We saw some heartbreaking things with people who have several years on us. We understand they had been without electric for about 7 or 8 days. Heres to hoping for the best for our Northern neighbors.
