I’m so glad your okay. The news had been focused on New Orleans so I had no idea this was going on over there. Pizza indeed!! What time should I be there?? Stay safe.

Just spoke to my aunt and she says she was standing right there as the waves crashed over her head – shes almost 70 and an adrenalin junkie apparently *shrug*

I was saddened to learn of the damage caused by this storm from friends who live in
in Somerset ..
I visited Boschendale Winery a couple of years ago ..a beautiful place ..I hope that the damage was not too extensive there ..
We have had rain almost every other day here
in Eastern Canada .. which during our summer is unheard of ..the world’s weather patterns are totally abnormal this year ..lets hope that next year is better for all of us .

Skip I couldn’t agree more, it seems to have gone all haywire everywhere – September and there is snow on the mountains again – in Africa???
Hope your rains stop at least before winter begins!
