Power outage

Returning back to Saginaw Forest after a week in Arizona, I found no electricity. Turns out that the winds from (most likely) Friday felled a tree, which then pulled down the power line.

This morning, DTE came out to fix the problem, but I think that it might be a little bit too much for them to handle in one day, since they didn't yet have any poles on site. I guess that I'll have clean out the fridge and buy new food soon. Ah, well... it needed cleaning out anyway.

UPDATE: DTE was able to replace both poles and restore power by about 5:30pm.
