Last Tuesday evening, when we had a terrible windstorm in our area, the awning was blown off our neighbors house, over their roof and into their power line on the other side of the house.
The tension from the awning being on the wire broke our line at the common pole we share in the middle of our two properties. Which meant we were without air conditioning or a well pump all night. No well pump…no water…no water…no toilet.
Our hero had to go up in his cherry picker and fix things.
Then when his work here was done, off into the sunrise he went.
I’m so very glad he got here nice and early. I know they worked really hard all night and the next day to get power back on for people all over our area.

That is one thing I don't miss, Monsoons, no power, heat and humidity. So happy he came out early for all of you.
The hero of the day that you'll remember for a long time...
WOW! What interesting geometrical design...
Some Storms! We read about them. We have lived through some beauts in past years also, living in Naples FL.
YOU are OK...that's what matters, if injuries or death occurs. No A/C, no water, tough way to live, makes us appreciate those basics all the more.
PEACE!
nice. glad he was able to get it shared away rather quickly...
I didn't know you had so much excitement. Was he cute?
No A/C would scare the heck out of me. Our son who lives in Phoenix was without A/C for two days when it broke and they had to wait for parts. He said he spent a lot of time in the car.
Amazing reportage!Please take care!

Oh wow. Thankfully no one was hurt.
No A/C in Phoenix is one of the worst things ever! I'll bet you felt like a real pioneer woman!
