"Really nice getting some rain though although sun's good too :-) My neighbor did the "Buy a tank of water" raindance the day before the rains returned."
Cindy, thank your neighbor for me! My grass was dyin' here and is now finally coming back....! I love the sun too! As a matter of fact, I skipped out on a couple of days work last week just to go to Kapoho and do some snorkeling. I bumped into some coral (first time ever!) and scraped my knee, but no infection or secondary effects. I was lucky I guess. And the water was very clear. And there were lots of fish. More than I've ever seen there. But getting back to the outage subject....I work on the phone ALL DAY LONG and use a digital phone, of course, plugged in to electricity. I learned the hard way that I needed a 'regular' phone for the times of electric outage. So today I was lucky I prepared for this day. I pulled out my old reel phone cord and plugged it in to my regular phone. I was able to continue working without missing a beat. And yes we do have more that 4.??? hours of outage per year, or maybe they mean per month LOL....
Aloha,
Maritza
