Living here in NH, they are saying it is the worse ice storm ever- they expect some people will be out of power for longer than 10 days- too many downed trees to remove before they can repair the power lines. I was one of the lucky ones and only lost power for 7 hours yesterday. My mother, who lives 25 minutes from me lost it for 36 hours but got it back this afternoon before we hit the single digit temperatures.
It is times like this that make me cherish the time I spend in my Villages home all the more, am looking forward to the future when I can be a full-time villager. After this storm, I don't think my friends will question why I bought a home in Florida to retire to!
