Tip of the Hat

Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 12:01 am

We all appreciate and send many thanks and blessings to the power line workers of all our storms and outages. Just shows how devoted and caring they are for all their works of danger.

It's a job that's probably never too much fun, but this (recent) week, with all the heat, the garbage is particularly ripe. A big tip of the hat to the people who make it go away. To all the trash collectors out there, thanks a load for your contribution to making civilization civilized!

Our gratitude to all those crews helping to restore electrical service to the community, especially in this intense heat and recurring storms. Thank you so very much!

Tip of the hat to Diane, Kim and the mechanic from AEP. They were very professional at the ice give-away (old Value City lot) Sunday morning. Even though it was hot and the truck was three hours late.
