Saturday and Sunday I didn't have any power here due to a storm that came through here Friday evening, it put a damper on my AC so I spent some quality time metal detecting in hopes that when I returned home the power would be back on, it didn't come back on until Sunday morning during about a three hour hunt but I did notice all the Consumers trucks heading away from my area heading to another spot cause the storm had snapped telephone poles right in half around the whole south side of town, I have no Idea what all the other sides of town got because I just haven't gotten around town since the storm hit because of all the traffic lights being out etc. Anyway I figured that by the end of my 3 hour hunt Sunday that my power would be back on and when I got home it was. I spent most of Sunday after the hunt fixing my X wife's computer so I'll be heading over there this afternoon along with her computer and my metal detector cause she lives in an old farm house on the other side of town plus I'm getting a free meal out of the deal along with what she owes me for parts. There is more good news, it looks like I figured out what my DSL connect was giving me so much havoc during the power outage and that was a dead branch that had fallen onto my phone line was the main culprit that caused me all the headaches. There's no telling how long that branch was there cause when I got it down it appears that my DSL problems have come to an end. For having that doggone power outage I still had a lot of fun metal detecting.
