Everyone surviving Hurricane Sandy okay?
Sir James A:
Glad everyone made it through okay.
Leesburg actually cancelled their Halloween parade, and are not rescheduling it - it's the longest running parade east of the Mississippi, and this is the first year it's been canned completely. Sad. :(
Sir Gerard de Rodes:
I hope my brethren and their families accross the pond are all safe and sound.

I escaped unscathed thankfully. Went to the Berkshires to avoid winds & power outage. Hope all others faired as well. My thanks for the thoughts Sir Gerard. :) After hearing of the blizzard conditions in WV, I presume Sir Nathan is being made to shovel snow by his parents. LOL :P He'll be quite busy this week.
Bernarr:
Christie moved Halloween to November 5 for NJ. A section of the boardwalk by the newest casino (Revel) was demolished. Other than that, the only thing that happened to me was losing power from 10pm till about 5pm. I'm glad I'm 45 minutes inland of AC!
Sir William:
We made it through ok, lots of rain and wind but no damage (that I could see). My folks are on Long Island; their town is currently under martial law- no power, no water and no food, with looters making the rounds so impromptu neighborhood watches have formed to combat them. Most of the houses on the seaward side experienced flooding, the dunes have been knocked down by the waves coming off the ocean- large sand drifts on the streets leading to the beaches. When I spoke to them last, the roadways were closed to anyone who did not have an ID showing they were a resident - still not sure how my father managed to get back in (he was in FL when the storm hit and drove back that night and stayed with me, left in the morning with 30 gallons of water and assorted foodstuffs to get them thru the day til they could find supplies elsewhere) but he did. Keep them in your prayers, fellows...for my part I'm hoping the looters pass them by.
