What a memorable storm in Ohio:09/14/2008

I just got power back!! You never know how much you need something until you do not have it: Energy. So let's not waste it!
This week was quite a mess after this Hurricane Ike's tale passed trough Ohio. In one of my previous statement about getting ready for emergency I said that it is a good thing to do even if we are not in the "land of hurricanes". Maybe I was wrong on the second part.
I hope no one got hurt and I attached some useful information to recover from this disaster.

Hi, Vanessa,
I just found this blog through We Can Do It.org.
Very nice.

We're practically neighbors--not really, but within several miles.
