Nice! I've been checking out the blue version
Thanks Björn! The blue I think was the first color they released and seems to hold it's value better then any of the other colors. It wears really nice on the wrist.

One more. Power has been out since noon. Found a place that's open and has beer. All is good :-)

Thanks dude!


Power out at my place too. I'm heading to dinner, then will go home and fire up the generator.

I hope the rain will help the firefighters knock that shit down.

We finally got power back around 7.30. sounds like may people are still out. Up to 300,000 without power due to the storm.

Glad you guys are back up.

We've got 450,000 + out down here and no sign of it letting up anytime soon.

I've got my generator running and it should go through the night fine. Zip tied a tarp over the top and outlet side (other sides exposed) to protect her a bit. Got the microwave and fridge going, plus the garage door opener, which is my main concern.

It was a hell of a storm. Hang in there Ed. Hope the fridge & generator keep working, so the beer stays cold! :cheers:

Thanks. I'm solid right now. It's supposed to continue through mid-week. I really hope the firefighters get the wet without the wind.
