Wind is picking up in Mass as well. At least the raking won't be spread out over a month. There will be no leaves left on the trees after this storm!

I used to enjoy windy days where I used to live because it was a small yard with some huge trees so our leaves would go anywhere but in our yard. At my current location, we are our own neighbor and surrounded by trees so they all meet up in the front yard, cozy against the house. That my friends is called Fall Karma.

I'm getting pictures from all my friends that live near the Jersey Shore and there is some major destruction going on, especially on the boardwalks. If there is one silver lining at all for the boardwalk owners, it is the timing of the storm, after the season, but well before the next season. They have such a short time frame to make all their money anyway.

Hope all are well

The cards actually came in handy, I took the most ornery looking player from my Old Judge collection and taped his cards to my door to keep the storm away. Sacrificed my Joe Visner collection for the good of the team, take a look at his OJ's, looks like he just got done fighting someone outside the picture studio!

We lost power this morning for about 3 hours, winds are strong here too.

Seriously, good luck to all on the East coast.

Sorry. Too soon?

We shook rattled and rolled 2 nights ago. Temps were 85 and dry but lost a couple of minutes of sleep when the beds were shaking from the quake.

Mostly just windy and wet as hell here, just outside of Cleveland.. Been pretty lucky so far Painesville as far as outages. Damn power's been flickering every 10-15 minutes or so though...Pretty much, in an increment that's about equal to the amount of time it takes the Cable box to reboot.. Been watching Married with Children DVD's all night, and anticipating some major weather tomorrow. Also, on a side note. Most of the local towns have moved Trick r treating to sunday. Try explaining that one to small children.

Well as long as he protected the rest, then it's all worth it
