A Weekend without Electricity


The storm came out of no where Friday night. The winds were crazy taking down several trees at the cabin. Thousands of trees in the surrounding area. It was easy to see where the straight line winds ripped through the area. As a result, we were without power for the weekend.

No power makes for an interesting weekend when there are 20 people at the cabin for the day and 12 spending the night. Trying to keep the refriderater closed so the food will keep through the weekend. Hauling water from the lake to flush the toilet. Playing cards by candle light.

Yet, we had a great weekend. Sitting outside around the fire pit.

Going for a boat ride with all the grandkids.


The kids played, the adults visited. We enjoyed great food and made great family memories.
