In our case, a tree fell down last night at around 10.30pm and took down a bunch of hydro wires, the lights went out for over 600 Sunriver residents, and the power stayed off all night, regardless of how many times we checked.
In the morning, Karen and myself took off to Victoria, had breakfast, went shopping, went to Moon under Water, had lunch, went shopping, went to 17 Mile House, had beers, all the time checking to see if we had the "lecky" back at our house. It was around 3.00pm that we were given the green light, on the BC Hydro website, to go home again.
An extremely odd 16 hours.
