it's a little after seven in the morning and so far we have steady rain and about 30 mph winds. i'm sure it will get a little worse but far from as bad as predicted.

thank you guys for your thoughts and well wishes. we were without power for two days and have a lot of trees down but none of them hit our house. my in laws still don't have power and are staying with us. i love them but...... now we start the long process of cleaning up and helping neighbors. rikki
