Well, seems likely you're having a "winter event" this morning,
Dick.

Hope you come through the power interruption OK. (I know how
uncomfortable those things can be -- though our FL experience
focuses on heat, rather than cold.)

thanks for the update. But I think you mean to say that the
Power Company is allowed to place their power lines on the
property of others.

Moderator:
That's the purpose of a utility easement.

At least you won't have to ice down the scotch.

Last night it snowed. It is still snowing and the winds are
up in the 30's. The power lines are above ground and people
are allowed to grow trees in the power conpany's easement.
When these trees fall on power lines, I experience my annual
power outage.

Be aware in case it happens.
