Yep, no power, and therefore no heat, for 11 days for us. Our son was only 7 months old when that happened, so I drove 8 hours south into the US to find a generator, and then straight back home. My Aunt had gas heating in her house, so I tied the generator into her furnace fan so we at least had heat. A bunch of the family went over there, and at one point, there were over 40 of us staying in her house.
For the first few days it was hard to find food, as nothing was open. But, we survived
