First post explained how it works. First clue is the fabric requirements and selections. That was last Saturday and we have a week to do it. Next clue is the beginning of directions, 9/16/17. A new clue comes out each Saturday and people post progress as we go. Have fun.

Just Jan, yahoo!! our power came back on this afternoon. Now I'm really antsy to leave and it's getting cold here. Suppose to snow at 6000' tonight and tomorrow night and we're at 5400' brrrrr. Been packing fabric and projects to take today, the important stuff Have the potatoes and onions from the garden ready to go, dehydrating is done for green peppers and the tomatoes are in the process. We may go ahead and leave next week instead of the end of the month.

Paintmejudy, family and homes are fine and we are so thankful! It's just the electric. We have some damage on other property, but it doesn't affect anyone but us for cleanup. Just Jan and Jaba..you are lucky ducks to have the electricity back on. The power company tells us Sunday. We'll see...our power company (there are more than one) has many, many trucks and workers. They are working 16 hour days and sleeping in a tent. Whew! I do admire them. Fortunately, they are having meals provided at the camp. Not sure what they do for the noon meal, but whenever they get it done, I will be so thankful. No water...means no flushing!! Our friends tell us we can use the pool water until it is all gone! Many, many helpers during this storm.
I hope to ride along on this mystery. Always fun! :-)

coopah, hope yours comes on soon. They had told us Sunday too so I was really surprised! They have lots of customers and are really trying I know, we have TECO, not sure if yours is the same or not. There are still lots of areas in Lakeland and Mulberry without power. We have been told they have to go by the grid.....
