Well, the verdict is in! The massive lightning strike that hit a tall pine tree 30' from my rig last Saturday took out my string of lights on the side, got into the pourch light, both not working. and a SAT TV antenna. Very lucky otherwise.
In regards to the electrical outlet and pourch light.....any recommendations on trouble shooting these issues? I'm going to do that this afternoon after work. I do know, no breakers were tripped on the pannel, no visible signs of damage anywhere. I will check the fuse panel tonight.

I proclaim to be a part time amature electrician, but that's as far as it goes.
And thanks for all the advice.
