In 2006, Vancouver experienced a very nasty windstorm, thousands of trees that had grown for hundreds of years were swiftly downed. We were left without power and the Internet for days. RUDE. I relate to your message, I've always relished being in touch, but out of reach. The amusing part of my windstorm story is that we didn't shower for days. Later we realized our water was heated by natural gas, not electricity. A slightly smelly household, because of my stupidity. :-)
