Default We're in the DARK

We're in the Village of Hemingway without power.
Anyone else in the DARK or does anyone know what's going on?
Thanks,
Whalen

That's odd....we're in Hemingway and didn't lose power. Must have been just around your neighborhood.

You must be among the few that are lucky enough to have a generator. I mean if you are without power, how can you also be online. Glad to hear the power is back on.........

Default Accident at Hemingway Gate

I'll bet it was caused by the accident at the Hemingway gate. Someone took out the whole island on the visitor side and there was glass everywhere. Village Watch had the entrance closed around 6:45pm.

Then again some of us forget to pay our electric bill. And who may that be?

No generator.
Hubby has battery back up on main computer and he kept the wifi on so I used my laptop on battery power.
My hero.

Snow plow must have missed a spot and it was too cold for the salt to be effective.
