Which would you rather have - electricity or water?

Posted by Sharla

Water. The answer is always water. I can live without electricity for a long time, but no running water gets old. The transformer in our neighborhood blew this week and we went three days without power or water. The apartment complex has a generator, but not everyone payed their fee that covers the fuel for the generator, so we didn't get much of that either. When the power finally came back on, Brian, Bethany and I immediately sprung into action. There were dished to be washed, laundry, floors to mop, showers to take, buckets to be filled (because we will inevitable lose water again!), etc, etc. Never a dull moment down here!

I have lots to tell, but we're off to breakfast at the German bakery here at the beach. If you've every been there, you know you should be jealous. More later...
