Still no power - story

Hey thanks for all the kind words fellas. We're hangin' in there. Again, we are lucky to be at my mom's place in the city where we have the basic necessities and then some. But yeah, being displaced sucks pretty bad, we're frazzled, fried and worn out. At least grandma gets QT with her grand kids which shes always bugging us about. Filled that quota for a while.

JDMopar, not sure what 'part' they were looking for, was just regurgitating what my neighbor lady told me, I really have no idea. We did in fact have several transformers go down in a blaze of glory at the height of the storm. There was one a block and half from us that really blew up good, the whole sky was red. There were some others I saw too but they 'only' produced a bright blue flash. I agree that the crews probably have limited info to give out. I saw a bunch of trucks awaiting dispatch at a nearby playground. I thought about getting out and asking questions but I had stuff to take care of.

Airwoofer, I did see several trucks from Alabama. Not sure if they were from your area but there are so many out of state trucks, its kind of tough to know where they're all from. I think everyone on L.I. is appreciative of their efforts wherever they're from.

69 fastback, hang in there yourself. You guys had it way worse, you were under friggin' water down there. Now with the snow already...

Thanks again for reading gang. Will keep everyone updated, hope we can go home soon.
