    Left us Late this afternoon. Nice here now. Had a high of 55 MPH, and this afternoon I checked the off shore buoy's. Ugly, 18-21 ft every 9 seconds or so. I only lost a palm tree. (blew over) Good luck Harry.

    Fortunatly......

    Fortunatly we only lost a couple of trees. Still now power but cable is back so we have internet through my neigbor's airport.Neighbor has power but all houses starting with mine down to the end of the street are still black! Power pak in laptop is down to 52% remaining so I'll only stay long enough to remind you that the storm- graded as a class 1 hurricane now was on the coast of New England, not Indianaplolis. You will see the Patriots put the lights out tonight in the "Dome" ( where sissies play football)


    GO PATS!!

    Harry,

    I hope you are faring well. We could sure use a little of that rain down here in Georgia right now.

    Should have filled you in this AM. Power was restored sometime during the game because it was on when I got home. A lot of yard work to do but nothing serious except the downed trees. All well again...thanks for your concern. I must be getting old.I've been out in Hurricanes before, from the age of 14 (Carol and Diane) I have never felt fear from the wind. On Sat afternoon I went out during a particularly breezy period. I was watching big trees bend by a third. Suddenly I felt fear and retreated to the house to watch from afar. Hurricanes are things of awesome power.

    Started here in Nova Scotia Saturday Nite. Lost power Saturday nite a couple of times while playing at the local pub. Power went off for good till Monday nite.

    Not much damage, just the power.

    Do you need any "undocumented visitors" to help you re-build? We got plenty and we'll share.
