Hi Guys,
Just wanted to say that I hope all of you and your clan (and your outfits) made it safely through that storm. Looked like it was one Big Blow from over here on the TV.
Dry, Calm, Warm and Sunny again today here on the Costa Blanca

Hi Trev,
Thanks for your concern, but where I live - 160 miles directly north from New York City - nothing happened. We were lucky, I guess. Monday night as the hurricane was blasting NYC and New Jersey, it got a bit breezy here, but not really bad at all, about 1/2 inch of rain fell.
I would guess that what you're seeing on TV is about the same as what we see, how hard NYC an NJ got hit. And yes, they got it real bad, still lots of people without power, water or even a place to live. A real mess that will take quite a while to get cleaned up. _________________ David D

We were out of power here in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania from 10PM Monday, until 11:30PM Friday. I used my RV generator to power up my heating system and refrigerator, but the generator is not powerful enough to power my well.
I need a bigger power generator, and although Louise thinks she generates a lot of power, she is still a few volts short............... I can talk big here since she never reads these posts. :>)
