First Hurricane Isabel, now this. I'm off to the recently wrecked South Carolina for a week to film a reality-tv style documentary on new recruits in the National Guard. So this blog may seem a bit inactive after all my previous posts. Oh, wait....

The hurricane rolled into our part of town around 2pm. At 3pm the company I work for lost power, around 6pm our house lost power. Somewhere between 9pm and 6am our upstairs neighbor lost a shutter to her window that landed in our backyard. And our power was turned back on. Then, power was cut off around 9am Friday morning. It was restored at 2am Sunday morning. Long enough for everything in our fridge (including 30 frozen chickens and an ice cream cake) to rot, and long enough to force us to cancel our housewarming party.

So party will be rescheduled, shutter will be nailed back in place by maintenance guy and more frozen chicken pieces will be purchased.
All in all, we turned out all right.
