So we made it thru...?!

We lost power for 18 hrs and I nearly cried like a girl?! I guess I came close to losing it cause we were trying to get so much done for trip. Cause we lose power all the time here and doesn't bother me-lost it for 8 days during the "big" ice storm of 98! So anyway my daughter cooked this lovely veggie meal on the grill in the garage-wicked big winds! No rain damage-in fact they said the storm missed Maine?! I set off the fire alarm at 4am when I lit the oil lamp under it-woke husband and baby-not good-two daughters slept thru!! I told them we needed another drill till they heard it! Not happy campers! And my niece continued painting camper sign during storm!! Looks great!

So we hit the road finally-5pm-stopped overnight 3 hrs from home w family! Tomorrow off again....West Virginia bound....
