It is very impressive to see a Douglas Fir tree with a trunk 60 cm in diameter snapped like a matchstick. Especially when it is across the street from one's house! Jon, glad you're OK now. We have some friends coming over who live in Federal Way. They still don't have power. We lost it at about 11:30pm thursday, and didn't get it back until about 10:00pm Friday. We called our phone until the answering machine picked up. We got home, it went off again for a couple of hours, then came back for good. Two cold nights, but we're OK --Peter Jon Stanton wrote: > I lost power i Olympia, Wa. 20:15 Thurs night....just got it back 4am Sunday.... It was quite > a storm...
