Thursday morning...
As I'm leaving the house this morning, halfway down our seventy-five foot driveway going to my car...
B A N G ! ! !
From inside the house, through the dining room window Michelle calls, "Did you hear that?"
Yelling back, "Yep!"
"What was it?"
"Loud."
"We lost power."
I look at the sunrise. "We did? You gonna be okay?"
"Yeah. I'll call the city."
"Okay, bye!"
Whatever it was, it wasn't the long, whiny death of a transformer...I'm thinking maybe it was a pole fuse. About the size of a foot-long hot dog, I happened to see one blow up from maybe twenty feet away several years ago, and it sounded like that, just closer and louder.
Wonder if the power's back on yet?
