EDIT: Power at 7:02 pm. Home DSL is kaput. Business DSL is working.
Rob, glad you got power back. We just got power late afternoon yesterday, so we were only out for 36 hours. Glad it's summer, not winter, as we have a well and oil heat. We're also lucky we're at a high elevation, so no flooding to speak of at our house. However, several major highways in the area have had washouts and are closed for the foreseeable future. Traffic is an absolute nightmare. The Passaic river is also scheduled to crest later today, so many other towns and cities to the east are likely to see more flooding. What a mess.
On a personal, trivial note, I had a disappointing bike related incident. Just finished rebuilding a bike for my brother (not vintage) and was transporting it to him on a roof rack. The handlebars caught a low hanging cable wire and ripped the rack from my car and did some damage to the bike. Understandably, the police wouldn't send an officer to write up a property damage report. Was told to visit the station today, which I may do.
