Default Ice Storm of 2009

So how is everyone doing thru the ice storm? We have been without power since Tuesday about noon. It took Larry all that afternoon to get our generator on our service truck hooked up to the house. So we have heat, water and everything we need. We just don't run a lot of things at once. It is burning about 40 gallons of diesel fuel per day. We have enough diesel for another few days. There are 595,000 people in KY without power. There are 21,000 people in our county without power and there are 21,000 people in our county. No one has power. The service stations have gas but no power to pump it.

Last night we had 15 people here. Today Chris's wife took their girls and went to her parents in Nashville, where they are staying until the power is back on. They are saying that it may be 3 weeks before we have power back. My mom and 2 of my sisters and their families are staying here, so they went back to their houses and cleaned out refrigerators and freezers and brought everything back here.

Hopefully everybody is doing ok. We will post more later.

Patsy & Larry
