So we survived

The winds and rains were bad enough here, but certainly not devastating. There were some branches down, we lost a gutter spout, and there was trash and other debris, but that was it.

We did lose power Monday night around 9:30. Laura and I stumbled around the house in candlelight for a little while before going to bed. As we were getting in bed, Laura asked, "So, are you ready for me to blow out this last candle?" As she was taking her breath, all of a sudden the power comes back on and everything starts beeping and running again. Great lungs my wife has!

I hope everyone is OK. WHUMC is trying to send some relief funds and materials through UMCOR.
