Doing well, thanks. Main home still has no power, but we do have a generator. Beach home made it thru with no issues. No damage at either place. All family made it thru okay too. I'm in NH with family in MA and NJ.

Glad to hear that

We got power in the main home an hour ago, YEAH!!! That means we have water as our well is electric.

Our beach house stayed on its foundation but did have the door bashed in, steps washed away, and shingles lost from the porch and sea door on wall gone on its way to find new friends. Thank goodness all can be fixed. It's just stuff.

I love your positive attitude. Hard to do in times this these!

Spent three days at our home just outside Philadelphia, watching TV reports and surfing the net. Was prepared for a week without electricity: cooking fuel, tons of food, books for amusement, gallons of water, and flashlights & radios that don't need batteries.

Didn't lose power or cable for even a second. My family and friends in California were relieved -- while enjoying their 80 F weather.
