They are the money makers for us lineman.

Why don't those crews spend the rest of the year putting the stuff underground? What're they doing?

Crews from all over New England are here and in the neighboring towns working around the clock. Trees are literally all over the place and laying on power lines, crashed into a bunch of houses too. We had no damage at all and the whole thing really just turned into camping at home for a few days. Not bad. :)Peter Atwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16246505554623368895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30128634.post-78672161665456313212010-05-28T17:31:10.076-04:002010-05-28T17:31:10.076-04:00Sorry to hear about that, Peter. gAt least it'...Sorry to hear about that, Peter. gAt least it's not the dead of winter or the middle of summer.<br /><br />BTW, dont worry about losing emails; I saved the email you sent me promising me that damascus folder ...
