Checking in from Morehead City. We are relatively unscathed. Got power back yesterday afternoon, which was glorious! It went out last Thursday.

The chickens rode it out in the shed like champs. I even got four eggs, which was bizarre. They were a little hesitant when I let them out because the back yard looks so different with all of the trees and branches and horizontal hedge, but after about 15 minutes they were scratching and clucking contentedly.

I know a lot of people who have lost everything. This was a scary storm. Even though it made landfall as a category 1, the fact that it basically sat on us for three days made it far more damaging than its category would imply. We got two FEET of rain. South of here got more than three.

It's going to be a long and expensive clean-up. I really feel for the down east community here. Many of these folks live pretty close to the bone and between repairs and lost income, it's not looking good. Send good juju our way, please.
