What a funny thing power is. We take it for granted and don't even think about it until it is not there.
After the last big storm the other day, we lost power in our house. Boy it was cold for those 43 hours. The worst part of it was not knowing when it was going to come back on. On the second afternoon, I pulled out the camp stove and started boiling water for a bath. It only took about an hour to get a half decent amount of water. That was so nice though. Again, it is taken for granted.
We were very fortunate to have only been out for two days. Some places are still without power today. That would really suck.
Kudos to all the Hydro workers and contractors who worked so hard to get everyone their power back. They deserve a big hand! Thanks!
