Hi merkabagirl,
I am in Sooke. My one daughter was going to a friends for thanksgiving so I didn't cook the turkey until Monday.
We were without power for about 2 hours also, but my newly purchased inverter powered my modem for Internet and the radio to listen to the Emergency Net. I have been getting ready the last month or so for just such an occasion.
My preparations have not been much but with communications, good flashlights and knowing where to get things when needed, I feel I have prepared more than most when I look around me.

Hi gatestar,
There is a get together for the Pacific NW listed under the United States, is that a different thingie?
