On Dec 4th a major windstorm blew through western Washington and caused widespread power outages. Most of the people effected were in eastern King and Snohomish. That wouldn't be us. However, when we got home from work we found the power was out and it had been for several hours. We lit some candles and toughed it out. We went out for dinner and when we came still no power. Luckily I had brought some firewood in the garage the week before Thanksgiving to dry out so we could have a fire on Thanksgiving. By about 9 PM it had gotten down to about 57 degrees. Tina was fine but I was freezing. I got a fire going and was actually able to warm it up 1 degree and not lose any ground. We drug the spare matress in the livingroom and toughed it out there with the fire. Power came back on around 12:30 AM Friday morning. Here's a newspaper story.
On Friday Tina was starting to feel bad again so she wen to the Dr. and found out she had walking pneumonia.
