The main thing is that you made it through it. Property can be rebuilt or replaced

Re: I came, I saw, Irene
Luckily there has been no damage to my house. I lost power for a little longer than a day.
Re: I came, I saw, Irene
Glad you're OK, power for one day doesn't seem that unusual at all especially for a hurricane.

Shoot, only a day? We lost power for a day this past summer when all the A/C demand blew a transformer.
Just kidding - glad you are ok, Kevin. As someone else said, you can fix a roof or window, but not always a life.

Lose power for a day vs 75 days of 100+ degree, which do you prefer?

I know where I fall on this one!
Ironically, as all this was happening in the east, it was 112 here yesterday - hottest day EVER recorded in Austin. Maybe 2012 IS the year....

Pretty big tree. What's on the other side of that? I'm happy to see that a hurricane like that didn't stop your run the next day
Hopefully the damage won't take long to repair.
Stay safe!

Re: I came, I saw, Irene
It sounds like you were pretty lucky to only be without power for one day. From what I have read, there are still thousands of people without power.

Re: I came, I saw, Irene
My town is still about 40% without power, and towns around us are more like 80% without power. Our house was spared. But my '97 Civic, which the kids drive, was not. See below!
