  1. Finally got power back on this morning, after 8-1/2 days without due to the "derecho" that hit last Monday.

      Did you have any damage to your cars or home?   We went through something like that many years ago,  we woke up to a loud roaring sound.   Our house was on a corner,  when we looked out of the window  we saw tree limbs spinning around in the middle of the corner.  We decided to go to our tornado shelter but couldn't get our doors open the air pressure was to strong.  There was really no safe place to hide so we went back to bed.  When we got up in the morning our house was covered with limbs.   My husband managed to get enough limbs out of the way so we could go to work.   When we got home that evening all of the tree limbs were gone,  the yard was spotless.   We still had most of a huge tree on our roof but someone came by later and manage to remove it,  he wanted the wood.   The weather man said there was no tornado just really strong straight line winds.    There was damage for many miles and many people who had damage thought it was a tornado.  We were also without power for a couple of weeks.  I am glad you are alright,  when we went back to bed we thought we might die that night.   Denice
