    Welp, dodged a major bullet yesterday, since no trees came down on the property, but basically all the roads around us are closed due to downed trees and power lines. The number of outages in CT is equivalent to some storms that took upwards of 2 weeks to fix, so hoping we’re on the shorter side of that timeline! Luckily our current house has a generator, so we’re able to keep the fridge and well running!

    (I’m not sure why the pins weren’t included on that list of essentials! )

    Nope, I’m still without power as well. Trucks finally have been around yesterday and today, so I’m hoping we get power before Monday. After that we have to get our cable/internet back as well—they can’t do anything until the power lines are back up.

    We have about 5-6 trees tangled up in wires like this around. It’s bad, but nowhere near as bad as the 2011 ice storm.

    For comparison, I had more than 5-6 trees down in just my yard in 2011. Our entire town looked like this video!

    Never mind, power came back about 40 minutes ago! Hope you get yours back soon too!
