rootofnewtA lot of stoplights are still out. A few are being run by manned generators out of the back of trucks. Last night, a several-block long swath of Main Street was still without power.
UVA lost several large trees. They're in the process of cutting them apart and removing them.
Boy is out mowing the yard. He got eaten by skeeters while he was out picking up branches earlier. I wanted to go out and weedwhack, but anytime I open the door, the mosquitoes find me.
Our neighbor-the-school-principal tried calling her home in Loudon County today. It has power (answering machine came on). She tried to call her school, but got no answer of any sort, so she's not sure her school has power yet. She's not certain school will be in session tomorrow or Tuesday (I believe that area also has a boil/conserve water restriction for the next week).
I think I'll go work on the kitchen or bathroom. One week before guests arrive, so the house needs to be spic'n'span. Most of the problem right now is just our long hair. It gathers and evolves into dust bunnies and dust rhinos, which then congregate and hold meetings and develop forms of government.
