We're here. Got power back in about 38 hours (read Really Lucky)! Don't think we're going to make it this year to T@P, not that I don't want to. We just got back from an exhausting road trip up to Palo Duro Canyon and I am not jumping up and down to do another one anytime soon. Oliver is easy now, but Gray is 1 year old and still not sleeping real well yet. Next year should be a whole lot easier to travel and stuff - I'm hoping. Maybe by then I'll have my interior finished, and inverters and stuff installed. ;-) Eskimeaux wrote: > Just wondering if everyone in Houston is back on the grid, there are a > few people at work that just got power back on last night.
