Lost Power in Orlando already

#1 Postby otowntiger » Sat Sep 04, 2004 7:53 pm

Had a squall move through around 6:30, lost power, but after an hour its back on! The airport had a gust close to 50 and that's probably what we got in that squall. Glad its back on, but for how long? I know it should only get worse. It seems like we've been in hurricane mode around here all week. At work they let us have Friday off to get ready and its just become a long drawn out ordeal. Charley knew what he was doing, he came took care of business and got out of town. I guess since she's a woman Frances can't seem to make up her mind. Either that or she is always asking for directions.

I very rarely drink anything alcoholic, but Frances may just drive me to take a drink tonight. Do you think a margarita left in the fridge for two years is any good? :lol:
