Storm damage quickly abated

We live off Yelm highway in the center of the recent storm. There were power poles on the ground and others tilted at dangerous angles with power lines strewn everywhere. Not to mention uprooted and broken trees.

Our power was restored in less than 36 hours. To us this was an heroic effort on the part of Puget Sound Energy an its workers.

Congratulations and thanks.
