Sandy is coming .batten down the hatches.

I had to shut down the computer so it wont get fried from the power surges.Everything is ok here.I lost power for about 10 minutes around 9pm last night.A tree fell on the lines a couple houses down the street.they fixed it quick.I just have minor damages here like the gutter helmet on the back gutter got lifted at the end.Some tree limbs on the lawn and a tree from the neighbors house fell partly in my yard which he was working on this morning.

I'm glad the rains held back.That would of made things worse with the trees uprooting.

I have not watched the continued tv coverage because they are getting carried away repeating the same stuff over again and again.

I know that it was going to be bad, but not bad where I live. Don't get me wrong, it was very windy & rainy, but all our trees are intact. The neighbor lady's tree, not so much. A smalll maple tree snapped @ the top & came down next to our driveway. Not harm done though. Our state, as far as I know, had no deaths due to Sandy. Rehoboth Beach did not get damaged. Dewey Beach flooded on the bay side. Lost the road to our new Indian River Inlet Bridge. http://www.deldot.gov/public.ejs?com...splay&county=3 If you can see this camera, it's the road to the left. My husband & I cross this bridge in the summer & go to the beach on the south side like every Saturday. I can't tell if the beach is still there or not or the inlet for that matter.

I feel really bad for the people in NY & NJ who had the worst of it. Our local weatherman kept saying the the front, right quadrant will get it the worst. We were very lucky. Never even lost power or cable but were somewhat prepared anyway. I really hope this is the last time the Northeast goes though this. And if anyone has heard if Wildwood Crest, NJ, survived this, please let me know. My husband & I spent a few days there this past summer. It has the most beautiful, widest beach that I've ever seen. I heard they got like 11 inches of rain.

I wouldn't have even known about it if it weren't for you. Fifteen minutes after you posted it is when I read it and immediately turned it on. Thanks to you I witnessed fabulous performances by Aerosmith, Sting and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Skip, I just wanted to thank you, my friend. You have really done a lot for me this year and I want you to know how much I really appreciate you.
