On August 16th I had my right hip replaced. 12 days later, on Sunday, August 28th, tropical storm Irene hit CT. Out comes the generator for 22 hours! On October 18th I had my left hip replaced. 11 days later, on Saturday, October 29th a rare nor'easter slams CT wreaking havoc that continues even as I post. Out comes the generator again for 121 hours (5 plus days)! This freak October snow storm will definitely be recorded as a historic event. The snow starts falling on Saturday, 10/29 ...
Bella hunkering down for whatever comes our way ... little do we know ...
Bella with friends ....
an hour before we lose power on Saturday I boil pasta and shrimp and power down my computer ...
October snow??? Bristol cancels Halloween!
Sunday morning 10/30 begins the 2nd day without CL&P juice
CRAZY snow!
when the snow begins to melt ...
in the still of the night 1 day after CL&P was restored to us, CL&P works to connect wires from a neighbors home pulled down by a tree in his yard.
LOVE this generator (which has been relocated to a friends home in Farmington who STILL does not have CL&P power ... 7 days after power was lost). So ALL is not well until EVERYBODY is back to normal!
p.s. if the hips have anything to do with it ... we're all set .... I'm done having parts replaced.

No more hip replacements please!!!
I remember one year when we had the first snow in the middle of October in Germany. CRAZY!!! Fortunately we never lost power since most of our power lines are underground - a huge advantage!!!
