Good evening. Supposed to be sunny Monday thru Wednesday. Have tomorrow and Tuesday off.

Had a scare. Thought the fridge had quit. We cleared the freezer out to the other ones. Checked the breaker and it was good. Tried outlet, dead. Seems like the breaker may have took a dump. Anyone know how to check it other than putting a new breaker in??

I am not very confident with electricity. You don't get much warning if you mess up

Hi Shawn.

Power problem solved. There is a generator transfer switches in the cellar closet. The boys went down to get helmets and evidently hit that circuit transfer switch. All good
