Assuming power

Got word from carl earlier that their power finally came back this morning. Makes me cold and lonely just thinking about it! Four and a half days! And there are people still without power now. Brrrr!

Walking up to the post office today, I saw a tree leaning on power lines just north of 45th. Clearly it hadn't caused the power to cut off, and the power company has bigger fish to fry than fallen trees that haven't actually interrupted business. The maintenance/repair people must be working their asses off.
