Default Power Outage Yesterday

We had lunch outside yesterday afternoon at Havana. At the end of our meal, the waitress indicated that the power had gone out and no further meals could be served. In the parking lot, a gentleman said the power was out all the way to Colony Cottage. I saw nothing in the DS today. Anyone know the cause and duration?

No idea what happened, but was in Publix at Colony when it happened. Publix emergency lighting went on about 10 seconds later. The registers were also able to check us out.

I had a roast in the oven and when I came back from shopping, it said PF, which I guess means Power failure. My new ovens and I are just learning to communicate.

It was out here, in Amelia, for about 10 minutes.

We were going to sit down and just talk...and it came back on.

I won't tell you what he said...but you can visit him this afternoon in The Villages Hospital!
