Thumbs up

yesterday was a good day, we had our home power back on yesterday at 3PM, moved out of our RV back into the house. (it was cold last night so it was nice to get back inside)

What you folks don't see is our local TV news station, there R areas on Long Island that are really bad,
our family real was lucky, my son on his bayfront home took a really costly uninsured hit, but he lined up trucks to backfill his washed out bulkhead starting today, lined up a bulkhead repair company to start in few days.

Two of my sons homes are running on generators so they will be fine.

Two of our three business are back up and running on the main grid last nite, we are so surprised the power was flipped on in those locations.
Last nite we shifted the big generator to the third business and now is off the little generators now on a big generator, big enough to run a whole village, maybe it can run Brownwood.

It holds 80 gallons of fuel, enough for two days.
Our perishable inventory was all saved.

Cell phones are still spotty, AT&T in bad shape Verizon much better, towers may be down.

All the restaurants are backed up with long lines, many can't cook at home.
Gas stations are open, some have long lines others do not, strange.

Again thanks for your prayers and well wishes.

We can now start to think again about our new home and friends at TV.
