The power went out this evening during diner. We have plenty of candles and flashlights so didn't seem like a big deal. I decided to take a candle-lit shower only to have the water go out- right after I had finished fully soaping and shampooing up. After waiting a few minutes to see if it would come back on, I used a cup of water and my damp wash cloth to rub as much of the soap as possible from my body. I considered standing in the rain to rinse off, but by that point the rain had pretty much stopped. Gail helped me use 2 bottles of water to rinse the shampoo out of my hair on the porch.
The power (and water) came back on about 3 hours later so I was finally able to rinse off thoroughly. Certainly a memorable experience.
