Ah, lights, refrigeration, hot water, internet... Welcome back!
I jokingly blame Anthony for our three days of indoor "camping". I seem to remember a previous post where he might have dared a hurricane to show up. Our new house held up well.
First big storm in the new house
Irene was windy and blustery, but overall not too damaging in our area. We did lose power Sunday afternoon, and it was finally restored this afternoon (Wednesday). The fence between our yard and our northern neighbors also fell down, but it was going to be taken down this month anyway. Since it was mostly high winds and very minimal rain here our new loam stayed in place. (We had placed straw bales strategically on the hillside, just in case.)
Temporary lack of fence between our house and the neighbors
& our some of our erosion control straw bales
The storm did delay our landscaper another week though. However, I'm not going to hold my breath on that one.
