Hurricane Irene

Trelja-

Sprinklers? Good one!! I did mean Frank's Shell. Thursday people acting like that was the only gas around. Dude - drive 10 miles "offshore" and there were no lines.

I think the quake was wilder than the storm turned about to be. We did get 7+ inches of rain, not sure about Seal Isle yet. I was in the 2nd floor living room when it started shaking. The dog freaked out, we went outside (along with everyone else).

Exciting week none-the-less. Earthquake, people getting arrested on the beach, 4 really sketchy people doing the dine-and-dash at the Red Sky Cafe, and topped off with a hurricane.

Cape May County is still closed up though. Glad everybody is OK

Power came back here in W. Hartford @ about 8 after 10 hrs down. A gallon or so of water in the basement last night but I found the problem & fixed it so we are all set here.

Did you feel like a Swampwalker?

Right now, the National Weather Service and The Weather Channel are discussing which one will get to move to a new domain name, ourbestguess(.com/.gov)

LOL, more like a Swampswimmer. Trying to repair and re-route a downspout draining about 1000 s.f. of steeply pitched roof during a torrential downpour in the dark, dressed only in my speedo (that disturbing image is for you, Noble100) was a bit of a challenge but if it was easy, everyone could do it. And the speedo was ready for its annual washing after the summer ;~) Now all is well, power back and the speedo dried off, so I am GOOD TO GO!
