Cleaning Up

I'm blogging today from a cyber cafe in Severna Park. We stayed up pretty much all night watching the water. It came up to the deck, but didn't get in the house. I spent the morning removing sandbags and cleaning up. Our neighbor had some siding blown off and a tree uprooted. To show the power of the waves, some of the big rocks, over 100 pounders were blown from our seawall up into the yard. I'm a little concerned about our well since water was over it. There's no word on when we might get power. I listened to CNN on the satellite radio in the truck, and they were reporting on flooding in Annapolis and Baltimore. They also said about 48,000 of us don't have power. The water has receeded a couple of inches now but it's going down slow because we have another high tide coming up in a couple of hours. I'll post pictures when we can. Thanks to everyone for the calls and emails. Wow, and they say this wasn't even a big storm! -S
