This tree just fell across the road out of the blue. At about 4 PM Sunday - this giant oak took down several power lines making our neighborhood powerless until midnight and blocking a main thoroughfare. Traffic had to be routed through our neighborhood.
City work crews toiled tirelessly to remove the tree and repair the power lines.
Lulu and I decided to go to Beef O Grady for supper and to watch the Duke at Boston College basketball game (Duke won). While watching the game we received an email and pictures from Drew and family. They decided to drive to Boston to see the game. Lulu really enjoys watching a game on TV when she knows somebody at the game.
We returned home about 7 PM - with the power still out - I hooked the TV and satellite dish to my big battery and inverter. While the neighborhood was dark - we basked in the blue glow of the tube.
Just before midnight - the power came on. We were already asleep but all of the light coming on woke us both up.
