We have a day off school today. Last night a big wind storm blew through Western Washington and many lost power. Ours flickered on and off a few times but kept chugging. The area around our school, however, is totally out. One of our colleagues went in early this morning and said it was dark and cold!
I remember living days, weeks without power in Haiti. At one point in time, we went 120 days with less than 100 hours of electricity. That was a strain but we were fine. The difference? Weather. It's one thing to lose power when your average temperature is 82* and quite another when it is 8 o'clock in the morning and hasn't hit 50* yet! Think I'll just enjoy the day!
