I so can understand Lee! Man, a month, I'd be screaming... but I can sure identify with the bath thing, we all where ready to climb the walls here I think by Monday.

My koi are in tupor, I have snow on the ground in most cases to boot. That tends to be anyplace from a skift to 6 ft. Never know whats going to come down here. The wind storm in this case dropped us from above 8,000 to a 2,000 level in less then 4 hours. Then we had sat through tuesday of clear freezing. The generator made it much easier for all of us. The upside though was the mega debris of fir bough's somehow missed the pond, very very little actually got in. The front yard & river side is solid green though on the other hand! The back got some as well. What a mess! Three homes, one mobile home and a travel trailer got tree's on them here. I consider us lucky considering we have lots of them around the whole place. Every time a gust came through as soon as it stopped I was checking the pond for branch's!

As bad as the worst of the winds sounded I still don't think it was as bad as a hurricane and the reports said it would get up to 185 mph gusts in the 4,000 level up. Luckily thats above us!
