Lots of Ice.

We're now working on our fourth day with no power at home. The ice storm took out most of the region on Friday. New Hampshire had almost half a million customers without power at the peak of the outage.

We have been camping out at the compound. My grandmother has a generator so we have been able to keep Tyler warm and comfortable. We hope to have power back today, but the same could be said all weekend. PSNH (The local Utility) reports 138,000 homes still without power, with slow and steady progress. Once we get power back I expect it will take 6 to 12 hours to get the heat started again and then we have to clean up all the clothes and dishes used on our adventure.
