Thank you FlDebra...post hurricane living is exactly what we thought of here and especially after we saw the convoy of power trucks coming into town on the highway this afternoon...it almost makes you cry when you see those guys! Everyone kept asking us why we moved to here...everyone is so negative but we've found just the opposite and I say why not live here! Although, we really are thinking of moving back to Florida for the weather! We've seen some angry people and some very depressed people in the short time since the storm hit, so we just try to help who we can, offer them a ride somewhere if they need it, a little heat, a cup of coffee, hot chocolate or to cook a hot meal for those who don't have power, we let one neighbor shower here since she didn't have hot water and we've told a couple they can sleep here if they want...that's about all you can do until things are 'normal' again. I almost feel guilty having this generator after seeing the disappointment on the faces of those who couldn't get one at the stores and the neighbors head up the hill and see out lights and think they have power back but they don't so I'll share my little surprise blessing with my heighbors who need it too.
