It was weird but cool! I usually strap my hives together in the wind. We get it a lot and bad on our hilltop so I usually get to it early but I just didn't this year...and I paid the price for it too!

Ours was out for three days almost to the hour. Wasn't it nice and *quiet* while the power was out? And man those winds were loud and scary. Sorry about your bees :( One of my bee-keeping club buddies called and warned about high winds, so I took a ratchet strap and tied my two hives down but good. Not sure they'd still be there had I not done that. <abbr><em>Leslie’s last blog post..<a href="http://gardenplotter.com/rospo/blog/2009/02/power-outage.html" rel="nofollow">Power Outage</a></abbr></em> LOVED the pics of the evening’s activities.

We never opened the refrigerator and everything stayed cold so we didn't lose anything somehow. Ice in the ice maker didn't even melt! It is still a bit windy but nothing like last night. We always get it bad since we live on top of the tallest hill around. That's the only reason the bee hives wee in trouble. Most times that wouldn't be an issue! The frames from the hive were scattered over a 100' path along with the hive bodies (the wooden boxes). At least it was sunny today! Power came back on around 11 am today.
