Made it through the night

[neadods]

There were times when the rush of wind made it sound as though my bedroom was underwater, but the gusts never reached as bad as we were told to fear. Irene & the derecho were much worse. The power has held. I'd still be in bed, but I forgot to turn my alarm off and now the cats want breakfast. It sounds like any rain now - moderately hard rain, yes, but little wind. Come daylight, I'll walk around the property, but I'd already know if something really bad had happened to it, I think.
