A Post from Last Year - About Irene

We're busy battening down the hatches and taking care of pre-storm preparations just in case Hurricane Sandy lives up to the reputation that proceeds her arrival.  Like Governor Cuomo advises, "Hope for the best but plan for the worst."  It makes sense to be more prepared than less. Couldn't hurt.  I don't think we're going to be as affected as we were (in this area) by last year's Hurricane Irene (by then, "tropical storm") but still, we're working to make sure we've done everything we can to be ready for not only the storm but a potential long-term power outage.  So, while I am too busy to create a new blog post today, I did go "back to the future" to dig this one out.  You might enjoy reading it again.

Enjoy this calm before the storm, and if it does hit us, and hard, remember, we're in it together.  Take good care!
