The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VII.. Stop In!!!

[Chief Eagles]

Afternoon. Wifey had said power back on by 2 PM. Around 2 I started to go to generator for frig and freezer. Deep cycle battery bilge pumps were doing great. As I reached for the main breaker, I heard the alarm system go beep. That meant power. Then the freezer kicked on. Looked in kitchen and frig display was lit. 2:02 PM. Wifey was pretty close. I had called Duke rep and gave him the riot act. Had folks visiting my house, texting and calling. One wire was holding up the whole part of the County as well as our Town. Lots of money lost by businesses having to throw out food. As well as lost income. All on one wire. Claimed they walked the whole line. What happened to the helicopters????? Folks are mad. See the co-op all around this area was up and running. Duke was more interested in the big city than the smaller towns that could be easily restored. The news producer for the big TV station lives here. She was getting mad. Trying to get her big boss to do story. Every time a storm, we drop power. Fed through the swamps and woods to big substation. Only feed. No alternative. Lots of people fed out of the big substation. Covers 4 acres. Now whining that I 95 shutting down and rerouting through a town with no power. Duke has grown too big compared to the size of its repair staff.
