POWER LINES DOWN!

I had to post our experience today...the kids have been playing around power lines!
Not a good lesson, I know, but papa and dad were cutting trees and all around them were power lines down everywhere. We called the electric company...no power in them.

And there are about 30 snapped power line poles all up and down the highway...seriously some were in three peices...I have never seen anything like it. Even the tornados I have seen, only snap the ones in their path. We were behind some workers and they were cutting the lines that were across the highway. One worker said it could be a month before we have power...he laughed, but we all know that it could take a long long time!

Gas is out at the local gas station, but we were able to get a couple of more gallons for the generator. Looks like we might have to drive sort of far to get more unless they get a delivery soon.

So far, generator still running...
