After reading all these comments I guess I should work faster at reconditioning the treadle I got recently. I usually get out a camping lantern, listen to a portable radio and read or knit or crochet.

In January, 2005, hubby & I were without power for 9 days!
I kept a journal of each hour & events of what we did, what we ate... etc. No heat, we closed off rooms & stayed in one room. Hubby was able to use a boat battery to hook up computer for an hour a day. He even played his guitar & sang to me.
Looking back & reading the journal... we were lucky!
So far this year, we have been lucky! Sure hope it stays that way for us! Sunday the snow was all melted, now we have about 6 inches again. I am so ready for the fresh Spring air!
