Apologies to those few readers of this blog... I was on a nice pace last fall with one to two posts a month on various and sundry topics when we were side-swiped by Hurricane Sandy. While we were incredibly fortunate in our community to not be flooded and to have had minimal property damage, we did lose power for nine days. And when you wonder where the next cell phone and laptop charge is going to come from, updating a blog comes pretty low on the list.
I was astonished at the sheer generosity of the community, with neighbors sharing, opening their homes for hot showers, electricians helping families rewire their heating system to get some heat with the help of a generator. We were definitely not the worst hit, but we still did see the best of community and resilience in the face of the natural disaster.
Now that I have recovered and re-found my footing, I will try to get back into the swing of things...
