Well I am still out of power (since monday) and it looks as if nov 22 is our day to get it back, but the weather is great right about 75ish at noon.

gas lines were crazy, 3 hours for $20 worth, but our neighbor across the street from us own a few stations so it was kind of like a milk man delivery service, set the cans out in the morning, and night generator fuel!!

but here are some pics:

Our dish was beat up pretty bad, so we fixed it (we actually got a faint signal):
