I hope where you are you didn’t suffer much storm damage. We had a lot of wind but no damage here at Headquarters. Tuffy says a tree came down last night on a nearby street. Here though, the wind huffed and it puffed and it huffed and it puffed but it couldn’t blow the door down. There was plenty of rain too but in our area of Toronto there was little if any flooding. On my way home from work yesterday, I saw some traffic lights that had partially blown down. It delayed traffic but nobody was hurt.
To those who were not so fortunate, my thoughts are with you. I hope you can get everything cleaned up and fixed up quickly. I know some people in NJ and NY lost pretty much everything.
Nature sure has a way of making you feel small.

I’m so glad to hear that you are safe and dry. This sort of weather makes one want to give all the furry creatures in the house an extra belly rub, doesn’t it?
When it rains over a few days, it’s really hard to keep the Newfs dry because they have so much fur.
Didn’t realize you are from Toronto. We were with friends from Maple this weekend.
New York City is a disaster and they say the NE coastal areas are in ruins.
We’re close to the lake in the south-west corner of the the amalgamated Toronto, a community we still call Long Branch. My wife lived east of Maple in Richmond Hill for many years before we married.
