It was eight days until the entire area was resurrected. If the Duke Energy person was telling us the truth it was because an important part of the electrical puzzle was underwater near the Archery Range where the two houses were lost to the flood.

In that kind of heat 8 hours is enough. Eight days must have been amazing. We bailed out to a friend's house in Georgia and came home because we were told the power was restored. We were surprised to find it in fact was restored and then lost again.

Ever since IRMA it happens occasionally for a few moments. No big deal. As soon as we get a house on the Historic Side wild horses couldn't keep me from buying the best Generac money can buy. For now, we have a portable unit that will keep us comfortable when needed.
