Mandy back okay

Although a little queasy after a bumpy ride up; the wind is still blowing like crazy, I imagine the plane got tossed around substantially on the way up from Seattle.

I would have posted sooner, but we have been suffering a lot of power outages up here.  Last night it was out for most of the night, and today again for several hours.  Word on the street is a transformer blew last night, but no one knows what is going on today.  It's back now, but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes out again at any time.

We'll be pulling out in the morning.  Please no one freak out if you don't see anything here for a few weeks; there is nothing to speak of between here and Prince Rupert, almost 300 miles north, and we're not going to push getting there, so it will take a while before we have any means of communicating again.  If I get a chance tonight and power holds out I'll put up more details about our route, but don't count on anything!
