Still nothing. Utility operator says "everyone by Sunday".. i assume we're before then since usually the folks in the boondocks are days behind and we're right near town...

Meanwhile neighbors hooked up a direct line from his generator

Nice!

Your neighbor is slightly different than mine.
 
I’ve always loved hurricanes
 
Got to experience a 5.1 earthquake this morning at our rental cabin in NC. Was about 50 miles away from the center of it. House shook for a few seconds. Didnt know it was earthquake until someone told us. Felt like there was a machine below the house going haywire. That was a first for me. On our way back to Florida now where we await the next several waves off the coast of Africa.

Basically a hurricane whipping through my neighborhood right now. Was going to go scout out a new desk but I’m trapped in my house.
 
Two of them heading toward the Gulf. Not in the mood for it next week (we have a guest coming to town) so happy to see the cone shifted left on Laura.
 
Was streaming the local ABC NBC stations and gust winds of 40 mph :dunno:, then I quitted
 
I can't hear or read the name Sally and not think of Mustang Sally
