Thousands still without power.... from RC Journal

[John SD]

I'm lucky my power has only been off for a couple hours through this whole deal. I feel for you folks who have been out for days and still no end in sight. Be careful out there!

Quite a bunch out up here. We have had the generator running since Friday morning. It sure drinks the fuel. :shock: We have an adapter so we run the 1000 pto and idle the tractor back to 540. I'm sure that's saving us a bunch.

Wow. I sure feel sorry for those people without power.
So far here, the power has stayed on.

Count us in those who have been without electricity since Friday...we just hope there is an end in sight! Tonight would be the perfect time for that end to begin! We'll be fine, but would sure like a shower!

The wind sure built some big and hard drifts around today!

The linemen for Moreau-Grand Electric have been working hard. We thank them and pray for their safety.

Cheers---
