Power Outage in Maple Ridge

Jun 24, 2002 by Mike Browne in Hmmmmmm
Carol and I were just catching up on our days in the kitchen when the power went out. I called BC Hydro right away and the automated robot voice on the other end told me that they weer aware of the problem and were investigating it.

This didn't help us at all as Carol had just stuck the pizza into the oven. ARGH! No pizza. We played around in the garden for a bit to kill time until the power came back on. I took pictures, Moosh lounged and Carol tended her garden. the power still wasn't on 30 minutes later so carol called our friends, Pete and Kellie who live around the corner. They had power. Carol brazenly asked if we could take our pizza there to cook it. They agreed. Thanks Pete and Kellie (and Sarah too!).

Traveling Pizza


We ate the Hawaiian pizza. And saved the pepperoni for later. Obviously the power is back on now or I wouldn't be posting this. Either that or we've harnessed the dog's horrific farts for a power source.

We didn't have to. They had just eaten dinner.
