Anyone heard from Hindoo?

Hindoo, actually not many winter weather stories, at least not where we have lost power. The only power outage (other than the gophers) I can recall in the past 8 years is when a guy landing at the nearly small suburban airport hooked his landing gear on the electrical wires (not underground) next to the landing strip. He crashed into a hanger and walked away. We lost power for half a day.

Used to have outages in earlier years when we lived right in St. Paul, but that was midsummer when AC usage was so high it blew something in our neighborhood (routinely one summer, finally ex-H managed to get the power company call center guy to give out his managers’ name. Ex-H called the guy at home at 2 am when our power went out for the 3rd time in 10 days and it was over 90 degrees – amazingly, that did the trick, the issue was repaired permanently the next day!).

Your D is right, it was 40 degrees and sunny today, we had a great cross country ski. Glad you are okay.
