We got lucky, lost a few more trees, one is sitting on my son's car in the driveway (treeguy promised he'd be here last tuesday I wonder where he is? lol). Out east we were incredibly lucky, Dune Road got battered and the inlet looks frighteningly bigger than it was last weekend, but it slowed the waves enough to keep the surge from wiping out our place I guess, that and the canal giveing the surge an outlet. We had water in the basement and we head out there Wednesday to start the bucket brigade, when we arrived I see my front door open and wonder wth is going on, it turns out someone who had done work for us, and still had our key hooked his generator up to our sump pump, and the water was gone. A big thank you and Christmas present coming his way. Big damage to the grounds but totally repairable.
Wife and I spent the week burning firewood, drinking (Jack in my case Chardonney in hers) and eating Skittles that were around from cancelled Halloween.
I'm incredibly thankful for our relative good fortune, and the fact that we may have been inconvenienced but are safe, sound, and whole.
