When it rains...

Strange things happen. While up north this weekend, we stopped a friend's house from burning down. The morning after a light rain, the electric cable running from his house to the pole fell down. The surge started a tv in the back bedroom to start smoking! Had we not been staying there, it probably wouldn't have been caught in time.

We had a bad storm here two nights ago. Before going to bed, I shut down the office desktop computer, and thought after that up north experience, I'd better turn off the power right at the surge protector. Somehow in doing that, the power supply cord got fried. At least we hope that's all it is.

Bad luck or good luck? I choose to see our luck as good - it could've been worse on both accounts!

And now, a few stray photos from our Florida vacation. Can't wait till it's warm enough to swim in Michigan! Though friends were uncovering and cleaning their pool yesterday, so maybe that day will come soon!
