North Van Marine Drive was out for hours yesterday too. My daughter works very close to Capilano mall and in the morning a pedistrian got struck by a car and at around 5, I was coming in the same direction and a person not stopping for the absent stop light, smoked the side of car.
Those people were not having a good day... Diana, thanks for the adorable tomato clown, I love his markings. I'll keep you posted on his progress and congrats on being a new mom...........with the new baby cIowns. (if Raf reads this, he'll be scared for a minute, lol) Lynn

 Gads! You folks are near a fault line too. Hope something doesn't go awry with that any time soon  With all the extreme weather and geologic shimmy shammying worldwide, do any of you on the coast worry about earthquakes?

I was lucky that my power stayed on. I know that some areas in south Langley were without for over eight hours! Paul ( Inspector on Canreef) had bought one of those power inverters from Canadian Tire...you leave them plugged in...when power goes out, you can run a powerhead for approx. eight hours before running out of a charge. The larger model could probably run a heater too if need be. Small investment for the life of a tank.

Ivy,
Power at our place & King Ed's never went out. Down the hill on Gilley, our friends' power went out for about 6 hours Sat. morning. Anthony

I had 15 black outs in the last week, I gave up and took the stand if it dies it dies and nothing did
 mind you the longest was 4 hours and the rest were under 1 hour.Steve
