Keeping Dry

Just a quick post to let everyone know that we are safe and dry. We even spent the last two nights of the storm in Boca where we were able to enjoy both pool and beach instead of all the rain. Getting out of town on Wednesday was a challenge! Today is the first day that I've actually seen the footage of the damage Fay has caused to surrounding communities- no wonder we've had so many calls!! We do appreciate the concern of friends and family. Fortunately, the only thing we had to deal with was ball moss and branches in our yard and a couple of hours without power. The neighbors had a small sinkhole develop between their yards and Kevin helped fill that in this morning. This week should be "back to normal".

In other news, Sully did a voice test with his chorus this morning (for those haven't heard him in a while- you wouldn't recognize him either). His voice is a lovely baritone and he will be placed in the ensemble as baritone is too deep for a children's chorus. The director is hoping that she'll have enough students for the ensemble to come together- so are we!

School routines will start up again after labor day. Here's to hoping we've seen the last of the bad weather in our area this year but we're still watching "the skies".
