Blackout


We have had a rainy couple of days here in Santa Cruz, rainy and windy. There was no power here for most of yesterday, others had it much worse we sat by the fire and played, went for a stomp in the puddles and had candlelight dinner together. The only little bit of excitement was that the skylight in the bathroom blew off in a gust of wind. Devon went up on the roof in the worst of the storm and fixed it. Fiona gets points for going into the bathroom and discovering the puddle forming inside...she was a bit worried about it and said "uh-oh" thus summoning help. Explaining that we couldn't watch her Winnie the poo DVD or look at You Tube on the computer was a bit of a worry...I told her that there wasn't any electricity and she accepted it, I'll have to try that on other days too.
Here's some video from dinnertime:

I wish we could have some of your rain....
Candlelit dinners are good though!
