Frances Was One Tough...

We were hit by the remnants of Hurricane / Tropical Storm Frances on Labor Day, and did it hit with a fury. We were lucky in comparison to Florida and south Georgia, but 55 mile-an-hour winds can still do some damage. Electricity here at the house went out around 9pm when a transformer by the road decided it had outlived its usefulness. We were in the dark for 22 hours. We were lucky.. .some in the area are still without power. Fortunately, there was no physical damage at home. My road was closed for a while just past the house, blocked by a fallen tree.

Now I see Ivan is lurking in the Caribbean, looking our way. Eek...
