Staycation: day five.
Power still off, but outside is warming up. So now it’s a big ice rink outside with people playing bumper cars with the real things.
Not interested in partaking in that particular contact sport, and as a result I’m still not leaving the house even if the worry about frozen pipes is fading.
Instead trying to see how far I can get on the remaining merge window pulls on just battery power. Not very far I bet, but at least something.
PGE claims power back tonight. Of course, they did that yesterday too…
