After the Storm

All is fine here, Silence and the house are all OK. We had power
throughout the storm, with only some flickering of the lights. We were lucky. Several of our friends had trees down on their houses and cars.
One of our friend's boat was hit by a falling tree... We saw damage in
Spa Creek to a boat on a mooring that was raked by another boat
dragging anchor during the night. It's hard to believe that someone
would just throw a single anchor and abandon their boat to the
elements.

Our preparation was good, but honestly, we were lucky. The track of
the hurricane caused us to only see north winds, which prevented any
tidal surge and flooding. We didn't have to even adjust a line during
the storm.
