Power returns Monday…

[Melissa Watson]

There are 10 or so completely snapped/down power lines between the Greenbriar and the Yellow Barn.  I am really glad they were de-energized when these babies crashed down into the dry grasses and I'm certain this kind of event and post-event cleanup is truly putting a heavy load on xcel's resources. I'll likely be taking advantage of IRA and the ITC and investing in a grid-tie/battery backup system this summer and/or generator system.  I've had enough after 4 days of glamping lol. I took a little video of the snapped poles:  https://youtube.com/shorts/yffzQuT0974?feature=shared
