Bad weather and worse drivers

[vilakins]

This is supposed to be the hottest month of the year. We usually go on holiday now or in March, but I'm glad we're going to the UK in late April instead. The weather might even be better there. We've had high winds, flooding, and cold temperatures more suited to May, and yes--another storm is due tomorrow just in time for the weekend.

A storm took out our power last week, and we had another power cut this week. It happened about 10pm, after the high winds we'd had all day had dropped, so we think it was the more usual reason--a drunk driver hitting a power pole. Sigh. I can't wait till they get all the power lines underground and idiots like this prize example off the roads. Yeah, I know, the first one has some likelihood of happening...
