No, we did not float away or blow away during the night.

Thank you — we’re very excited too.

Unfortunately, a lot of people in the direct path of Hurricane Helene weren’t as lucky, and I wish them all a speedy recovery.

We had on-and-off rain, lots of wind, and the power has been out since around 1:00 a.m. (Eastern time). No air-conditioning, and I slept with two little flashlights and a package of AAA batteries next to my bed. Altogether, a survivable outcome.

However, early a.m. messages from our county advise dangerous road conditions, downed power lines, lots of debris, etc. So no idea yet when power will be back on. I’d better save my battery and sign off now.

We’re still better off than a lot of others, so no complaints.
