Day 14

Day 14 of no power although there is hope. The linemen are finally working on my block, but no promises. The best I can do today is a mobile pic of the work truck.

Day 13

Still no power and can only post via my iPhone. The sun rises on a lovely day. We are lucky for the sunshine and higher temperatures at least.

Day 12

On day 12, NY has followed NJ with odd/even gas rationing. Here is a gas line just after dawn this morning. Not a good angle, but trust me, it does go on and on. Still only iPhone pix since we still have no power.

Day 11

Day 11 of no power and the natives are getting restless. The LIPA Facebook page is filled with irate comments but no responses from LIPA. The Nor'easter left us with about 7.5" of snow this morning, but luckily it will be melting off soon. It also did more tree damage which is going to take some time to get all cleaned up. Again, these are iPhone pix which really don't tell the whole story.

Day 10

Still no power. Rumors of tonight, but given the pending Nor'easter, who knows. Here is a shot from down the block which is typical of what you can see around here.

Day 9

Still no power but we are hanging in there. We are expecting a Nor'easter tomorrow. There are still downed wires with no utility crews in sight. This picture was taken around the block from me.

Day 8

Still no power. I told myself I wouldn't sit on s line for gas, but I am almost out. I spotted a short line (one very long block) and they are awaiting a delivery. Not sure when it will come though. Look at the view from my car window. Lol
