Third Power Outage Ends

The power was restored around 5 today, having been off for roughly 27 hours. We survived w/o resorting to a motel, having acquired a small, gasoline-powered inverter-generator which we ran for several hours last evening and another several this morning. All of that used maybe half a gallon of fuel, not bad.

There is talk of another shut-down this weekend, but as far as I know now, nothing definite. The weather report predicts wind on Sunday so that is when it will likely happen.

Moving back and forth between house and RV will quickly get old. Eventually, the rains will come and the fire danger will drop precipitously (pun intended). That happy change could easily be a month (and several shut-downs) away.
