Just a quick post to say it looks like the worst is over here.I'm heading down to the chicken houses to see how things are.I could see enough during the evening to know some damage had occured.On one hand it was hard to stay in and not go check on things, on the other I'm almost afraid to go see now.It's still dark so can't really see much yet.I'll post back later.Hope you all are safe.

Patty,

Came down to the computer early hoping there would be some news from your neck of the woods. Glad to hear the worst is over and hope that your damage is minimal.

Hugs,

Susan

Hey Patty:

Hope everything is ok or at least as good as it can be. Hope your chickens didn't blow away. Take care and keep in touch.

Glad to hear the worst is over for you, although the clean up is alot of work. Hope all your chickens did well and all you need to clean up is some branches. Any idea how much rain you guys got or how strong the winds were? We were very lucky here on LI. We had some gusty winds but nothing bad. Hardly any rain, not the downfalls they had originally thought, yesterday.

I was amazed to find so little damage!!The corn field took the hardest hit.That's disappointing because we had such a good crop this year.Chicken Land had little damage.The birds were stressed but overall things look good.Not quite sure how much rain we got, probably in the 3-4 range.We only lost power briefly. My sister who only lives about 7 miles down from me got 9 inches of rain and lost her power.I'm feeling very thankful today.

The coolest thing during the storm was Deb WA called to check on us!!Deb, that call meant so much.And it took my mind off things too.Thanks!!

I got emails from my sister and niece. They said it was basically a bad rain storm in Southern MD (I guess so after the tornado in '02. Everything is relative). My sister said her heavily wooded yard is a mess, but other than that they're fine. Lauren said they are too, but the small house her husband had prior to their marriage is down on a little island in a river in a county south of them, and it might be flooded. She said if they could total that it would be a good thing! LOL! I'm still running sprinklers here.

So relieved all of you guys are OK!

SO glad things are relatively "ok"....and really glad we got to connect LIVE before things got more unsettled for you. As I said..I was thinking about you and posting a message didn't seem the same as actually talking to you!

Take care Missy!

and..uh how was that pie??????
