Power cut out about 30 seconds after yesterday’s post, followed by biblical rain and winds like a freight train. Fences are down, ham radio towers folded in half, chainsaws are buzzing. Many big trees are down in the neighborhood, including a beautiful cherry that will be mourned by all, but no injuries that we know of. Cell service is spotty, power lines and light posts are down in the road, neighbors are out checking on each other. Hopefully, power will be back on some time today. We’ll have some serious cleanup but we were lucky. It could have been much worse.
