#DailyBloggingChallenge (87/100)
Today the town lost power, which is not a new phenomenon. This time it was during the night. With the lost power the internet is also gone, since there is no power to power the radio towers. If one has access to satellite this probably would persist as long one is accessing it directly to the device.
The first thing I grabbed was my headlamp which is located in my ruck that was close by. Then I went to check if the power outage was my fault before checking outside to see if the street lights are still on.
Scrambled to go find a candle before contemplating what to do next. Either I can wait about four hours until the electricity is up and running or I could go to the next town over which still has its lights on thus most likely also access to internet.
It is quite interesting how dependent we have become to electricity especially in a home setting. When out in nature it is expected not to have electricity, thus there is no shock.
The good thing is that I train regularly how to live without power, so I knew exactly how to react during the initial outage.
