until I decided an hour and a half was long enough to wait for Consumers to restore my power. So I started the generator up. Boy am I glad we bought that when we moved in. The dome was already wired for it when we bought,so we thought it might be a good idea to get one. It’s been a fun week what with the water softener, bathroom faucet and now the power failing. Oh,yeah. The power also knocked out the phone line too. At least we have the cell. Hope to get back to painting barrels tomorrow.
