No Brown Out

The leg bone connected to the tail bone...
Linda was so grateful that we didn't lose power during the storm like a lot of her friends and family did.  Some people were out almost a week!  Last night she was working on her Les Mills choreography and we were napping on her lap when the lights went off.  OH NO!  How could we lose power now?  There were no storms or winds. She thought it might be a "brown out" from so much power being used at once.  It came back on right away, thank goodness.  Today she read that for than 4,000 neighbors lost their power just 90 minutes after the last outage was restored because a tree fell on a power line about 200 yards from our house!  The news report said that power won't be restored until 11 p.m. tonight.  We must have angels protecting our house because technically, we shouldn't even have power right now.    In case you don't understand the science of a brown out either, this diagram may help (or not.)
