I'm eager to hear the details of both the storm and the current situation.

We haven't heard from daughter-child yet ..... :-(

She sent an email Thursday night around 10-11:00 saying that it hadn't been too bad yet and that, obviously, she still had power but the phones weren't working. We haven't heard anything from her since. We assume that she lost power soon afterwards and that the phones still aren't working.

When I've tried to call, I've usually gotten just strange noises. Yesterday evening I finally got their voice mail and got excited about that. But they use the voice mail through the phone company (rather than having their own answering machine) and apparently it's back in service but not their phone. I'm not sure but I think they maybe have only portable phones, which don't work when the power is out ..... :-(

Welcome Back, Chair. I'll bet you've got stories to tell. We'd like to hear them.
