LOL. No, we are never ever finished! We think we are, but something always needs repair or re-design. Hubby's first words to me on his first days off are always, "What are we doing with the chickens this week?". Poor guy.
I can't remember exactly, but it was a long time. I'm thinking around 10 days. City always gets taken care of first and they were hammered. It was a very extensive ice storm. I remember hearing about folks in the really rural areas of north central Arkansas that were a month without power. Luckily, we have propane for heat and a couple of generators kept the fridge and freezer running. Neighbors had a whole freezer of beef that was starting to thaw and luckily we had an extra generator for them to borrow.
