Hurricane
Just days after an earthquake we are literally in the middle of hurricane Irene! We are having 85mph winds as I write this! Tons of rain and tornadoes to top it off! Just amazing!

We experienced hurricane Bertha in the Bahamas in 1996. Quite an experience!
Hope Irene doesn't wreak too much damage and you all stay safe.

Came through fine. Lost power this morning but it's back now. Only branches down and no damage. Torts were put away yesterday and spent the night inside. We are getting the backside winds now so hopefully no trees come down. Thanks for the well wishes.
