Low standards n all.

Any thoughts on snow levels the next week?
Above your elevation no doubt.

My grandma hated it because she had to continuously reset all the clocks. Similar issue, lots of tall trees near the power lines but there are also issues with vehicles hitting the power poles along the highway. I think there is only one line that feeds the whole area so if it goes down, the whole area is out.
I heard BC Hydro was working to bring in a secondary line though if I'm not mistaken.

That said, I loved their place in Swansea Point. It was absolutely beautiful. Nice pond, garden, and creek in their backyard. Just a short 3-5 minute walk from the lake. The only downside was that it was in the worst location for mudslides. They got hit hard in 1997 during a massive slide that took out the road and sent piles of mud and debris crashing into their basement. The same thing happened to their house again in 2012 but they had moved to Kelowna since then so they thankfully only experienced it once.

I don't know for sure, but I think their house got hit the worst out of all the homes in the area both times due to its proximity to the mountain and the driveway, which was on a downslope. Beautiful home, stunning location, but high risk of your basement being filled with mud and debris during heavy rains and high snowpack. Lots to consider if the home is ever up for sale and one wishes to buy it.
Haha. That’s what bothered her the most. Resetting all the clocks takes about 30 seconds, unless perhaps she’s a clock collector.

What used to bother me the most about power outages was the smoke alarm beeping right as it was coming back on. :lol:
