Sorry, couldn’t find a picture of them doing this in the middle of the night.
It wasn’t a heavy snowstorm, we didn’t have high winds; but that didn’t stop a power outage from happening. Eleven o’clock at night, bam! no electricity.
That morning I noticed a couple of cherry-pickers working on the wires. It turns out they were from the phone company. I’ll bet they made some kind of mistake up there that came home to roost that night. Just try getting anyone to admit to it.
Well, it doesn’t take much, does it, to disrupt our modern way of life. Yeah, yeah, I’ve heard it before, just get off the grid. Sure, I want to make radical lifestyle changes in my seventies! Instant transformation, Lifelong Suburban to Mr. Mountain Man. What could possibly go wrong?
