Hurricane Irene

Hurricane Irene made her way up the Eastern Coast this weekend. By the time she got to us she was pretty much a tropical storm. We did have heavy rain & strong winds for most of the day, although the rain stopped by early afternoon.

Alexander was worried there would be loud thunder & lightening and beside a few quiet rumbles yesterday, there was none to speak of. We were also of the very fortunate bunch that we only lost power for a split second earlier in the day. Other than that we had power all day. Lucky, I know!
