Hahahaha, I've had to do that for the past 2 days, not to the extent of having to collect me own wood, however, but my electric ignition was out, of course, on my stove, had to use a lighter to light the stove. I a house where no one smokes and we don't use candles except at Christmas time...Wow, where are all the matches??? LOLOLOL The power being out was fun, the first day, the second...it wasn't fun any longer......Happy to say, after seeing all the damage caused by Irene just in my area, Baltimore Gas and Electric did a great job, prepared really well. Thanks BG&E.
