Hurricane Ike



About 6:00PM Sunday evening Hurricane Ike made it's appearance in Coshocton County. We had several hours of high winds without rain - so strange. Many Ohio counties were affected and the Governor declared a state of emergency. We were one of the million and a half Ohio customers who were left without power. The town and county were a mess! Our kids were without power in their homes too. After 46 hours our electric returned - just when we had made arrangements to transfer our meat to a freezer in Jen's in-laws house and I (Rena) had decided that we could no longer tolerate cold sponge baths! We did not have any damage to the house - just some branches off of trees to clean up, PTL. Many more are still without power.
