Public utilities saves the day




On the morning of August 20 as I was getting ready for work, I heard a loud crack such as a gunshot, and my power went out. After waiting about 15 minutes, I decided to make a few calls to see if anyone else had reported being without power. I was, after all, in jeopardy of a seriously bad hair day at this point!

I called law enforcement since it was too early for Grand Marais city offices to be open. I was informed that no one else had reported a problem. In less than 10 minutes, our city crew arrived, and in less than a half hour, all was well at my house again!

These guys are to be appreciated for all they do to keep things running smoothly in our beautiful town, no matter the time of day, what the weather is, and what the emergency!

Many thanks!
