                          It sounds like there is a good amount of people from here going so we absolutely should. I'll send a message to those that I know going.

                            I had an exciting day, Friday night one leg of my service shorted out and blew a fuse, it was shorted to ground.  I didn't want to pay the after hours charge for the utility guys to come out so I made do without one leg and planned for today.  I dug a 70' trench and made a Menard's run.  I got a Type 3R breaker box to hang on the pole under the meter socket and other goodies.  The co-op guys came this morning and replaced the janky old wiring with a 200A service to the new box on the pole, I just finished getting everything hooked up in the house, I replaced the breaker box in the house too because some genius didn't use duct seal and it was corroded on the neutral bus.

                              Finally picked up a 35mm f1.8 lens. Huge difference. Gave a reason to walk around aimlessly on a Wednesday night, so that was fun. Also trying to learn a little about composition and all that other fancy-pants stuff.

                                Had the similar thing happen to me about 10 years ago - neutral went to ground. We not at home when it happened. It fried a whole bunch of components in the entertainment center, including the TV, and the lights would go super bright and then real low, and kept cycling like that. The garage door opener was acting real funky too. It was like the house was possessed! Walked in to the smell of ozone because it had baked one of my surge protectors. Fortunately no fire resulted. The WPS told me the neutral went to ground near the terminal box behind my house. Someone had nicked it with a shovel (outside of my property so I know it wasn't me) and it eventually corroded. Fun stuff.

                                  I’d imagine that even with the weather, they’ll still be running tomorrow at Road America? Trying to decide whether or not to make the trip.

                                      If anything, it's going back to normal. I remember the days where we'd go weeks with almost no activity.
