Oh, that's a relief to hear you aren't in the path of them! Still sucks about the power situation but it makes complete sense. I hope things stay good for you guys!

I didn't even consider adding a bg image, but that sounds pretty cool. It makes the layout kind of busy but it also works really well! I edited the preview journal here with just the additional background (and changed the link text color to white). I also tried something out with a filter, if you think this looks better. Just wanted to show you different options of the same idea.
