I know, we are all bothered by the higher cost of electricity.. but we can't take it out on the workers who get that call to go out on a dark, rainy, thunderstormy night.. after realizing our cabin was the only one affected by a lightning strike last night, we contacted NYSEG to let them know we were out of power, and the strike was close to one of their poles. Within two hours a worker arrived to assess what happened, and realized the transformer needed to be changed. A little more of a wait, then two more trucks arrived (it was still pouring out) to change it out. By 1230 am we had power back!!
Then this morning we realized my new fence charger for the chickens got damaged, so that has to get sent back for repairs. Fortunately we do have the charger we were using for the lambs..
So a few things.. how much lake effect snow will we get thru tomorrow night. And how much do you think each of the turkeys weighed?
(I could have swore there were aliens in my driveway last night.. but no, it was a NYSEG truck.. 😉)
