Riders on the Storm....crash

The remnants of Zeta did a little bit of a number on us. Everyone is fine and we're dry and we have power back today. The detached garage is definitely not fine. You wouldn't be fine either if a hickory tree had dropped a 100-lb. limb on you from about 60 feet up.

The internet here is not fine either. Spectrum is showing huge outages all over the region, and they're saying they can't even get people out there to fix the main line until they know it's safe - which it won't be until the power company fixes what they need. We are very lucky to have power - lots of our neighbors don't.

I'm posting due to the miracle of personal hotspots on phones. WORTH IT.

Glad to hear you're okay!

Pity about the garage, of course, but better it than you or your house.

I am so glad that you are okay. Your GO/BBC Sherlock fic made me smile.
