On the way home from our trip to Chattanooga, we got diverted by powerful storms. We were aiming for Detroit but got sent to Akron. We deplaned. We re-loaded. Sorry, we deplaned. We re-re-load. Sorry, so sorry! We deplaned. We loaded, somewhat grumpily. We got to Detroit. We got to our town!!! True, 4 hours late, but so what? Try trekking across the country by conestoga.
Next day, we got hit by rough storms. Knocked out the power, of 100,00 or so users of electricity. But we can handle it, right? No dishwasher, no garage door lifter, no light, no tv, no charge for the Kindle, the iPad, iPhone, the Trac Fone, no computer, no air conditioning, no refrigerator, no freezer but it could be worse. We did have water. We did have candles.
Quite a bit of meat thawed and Lynn donated it to the homeless shelter.
But 15 minutes ago, internet! Lights! Garage door opener! What will they think of next?
