Cooped up in a house with no power and a pregnant woman was NOT really all that much fun. Also, we used the grill to heat water, make food, etc., and everything tasted charred.)
I like the snow, but I DO NOT want to go through that again!

We had an October like that too, Mike. Wasn't the same year, though. We ended up without power for 5 days. It was aweful!! I can't even imagine how much fun it would have been going through that pregnant.  You have my sympathy!!
