Help me trouble shoot this problem! - Home Sweet Home

Before we left on vacation our garage lost power. Everything was working fine in the morning but not working later in the afternoon. We can't figure out why. John looked at the circuits and said they all look fine, nothing was tripped. I doubt there is a problem with the wiring. We don't have any sort of rodents or wildlife around here that could have found a way into the attic and chewed the wires. Johns going to check on that anyway if he can ever get time to come home.

Any ideas as to what could be the problem? We're both

Check your GFCI outlets. One of them may have tripped, turning off the power to the garage.

Well that isn't it. There isn't any of those plugs out there
