The Roving Entrepreneurs Travel through time

Thank You Hurricane Irene

I’m recharging my devices on day 7 without power at a local coffee shop.  I started thinking about all the new experiences of this past week.

I could go on about the inconvenience this has caused, but I started to think about all the benefits of this past week.  Benefits I wouldn’t have appreciated or maybe even noticed if I had all the “Conveniences” that I have come so accustomed to.

1. Dark nights enabled our family to sit together,  talk, laugh and relax

2. Candlelight is wonderfully soothing

3. Honed my organization skills (can’t get much done after the sun goes down)

4. Sitting in a coffee shop for a couple hours while I wait for everything to recharge

5. Sunlight is amazing

6. Exercised all week (makes the cold water more bearable)

7. Found that people were very willing to help where they could A very special thank you to:

• The Lodge at Cold Spring for providing emergency meeting space

• Healthtrax for the hot showers

8. Creativity and resourcefulness became a way of life.

• Came to appreciate what free Wi-Fi really meant.

• A cooler can hold up to 2 days’ worth of food

• A grill is used for more than cook outs

     9.  My refrigerator is spotless.  There are some things that cannot be put off, I’d been meaning to get this done for weeks.  OK this isn’t exactly what I had in mind, but it hasn’t been this clean since it was new.

Sometimes gifts come to you in the strangest form.  I will go back to enjoying the conveniences of life shortly, but glad this week showed me another view.
