After hurricane Rita we had no power for 7 days in 100
degree heat with 100 percent humidity. It is so nice to be able to
flush a toilet without having to haul in the water from the pond
first. We had a guy stop and offer to clear off our 4 down oak trees
yesterday, he wanted $5000.00, for a $800.00 dollar job.
After a hurricane in NC, we had no power for 11 days, and in the first
few days, we had to drive over an hour to find water for ourselves,
four dogs, and six cats. We live deep in an old-growth hardwood
forest and couldn't get out of our 3/4 mile private driveway for over
48 hours. Then, some guy came up with a chain saw and sawed a hole in
the wall of 150+ year old Oak trees blocking the drive. The hole was
barely big enough to drive our car through. It took him 15 minutes
and he charged us $1,000. We were desperate. Now, we own a chain saw
and a very large generator.
My heart goes out to the Texans and their communities ravaged by the
recent hurricane. I know what it's like. Please keep these guys in
your thoughts and prayers.
