Power was restored at 5:35 a.m., not 11:30 p.m. as originally promised. So, I guess it was out for about ten hours or so…that’s a long time without light and AC and fans.
After my long-delayed shower, we’re ready to hit the road, the objective to drive to Mississippi and buy a car…or, at least, to look at one.
Despite their annoying characteristics, power outages tend to be valuable reminders that we are spoiled. I know I am. But grateful for the people who, over the years, have perfected electricity-generation and distribution so well that we can take it for granted.
Hmmm. The forecast…rain and thunderstorms…for our destination has changed our plans. Maybe another day.
