Yeahh!!! I've got my utilities back!!! Saturday we have 50-60 mph winds during a bad storm and 2 trees came down and destroyed my utility service. No power, heat....nada. My family and I stayed in a hotel sat & sun. Then, after the landlord claimed act of God & stated he's not willing/responsible for expenses incurred due to his tree cutting off our service & waiting for him to get a certified electrician to replace the meter breaker & ug. power line, he was gracious enough to allow us to tap the electric from our recently evicted neighbors trailor to run the chest freezer and wood pellet stove so we can come home. My orchids seem very resilient. Over the weekend there was no heat and I needed atleast a fleece jacket to stay warm. then with the pellet stove on, it was mighty hot in here. My Phal didnt blast any flowers and my 1st attempt at a hybrid is still alive. Heres pics of the storm damage & of the pod. With my mortgage & lot rent, its cheaper then a 2 bdrm apt. and I get a yard to work. I just put a deposit on a house which is sweet.









day 22... the after math-
