Actually meant to send this to the whole list, since the media had this whole Irene story so over-blown <vbg> that people are probably more worried than they need to be. -NN

Some branches down that I'm just as glad didn't hit my car, but nothing much overall. I'm going down to my house near the coast in Stratford CT tomorrow, however, and will see then if there was significant flooding from either Long Island Sound or the Housatonic River; I don't expect wind damage so I expect all my lace collection to be fine. I didn't have a lace pillow with me today so I got a lot of reading done instead (and drooled over some new books on Barbara Fay Verlag's website...). > >Irene basically became increasingly disorganized as a storm after making landfall in North Carolina, and I don't think turned out to be much of a threat once it downgraded to a tropical storm further north, except for flooding (and the crazy things people will do such as driving into a large area of water covering a road). But lots of power outages may be keeping people off their email, so don't worry too much about not hearing from people for a while. > >Nancy >wet and a trifle wind-blown in Connecticut, USA > > >From: Clay Blackwell <[email protected]> >>To: ARACHNE <[email protected]> >>Sent: Sunday, August 28, 2011 6:10 PM >>Subject: [lace] Call-out to all Arachnids in the path of Irene .... are you OK??? >> >>Just hoping to get good news from everyone in the path of Irene.
