Hurricane Irene


No small number of thoughtful friends and loved ones have inquired about how things fared in Winston-Salem during this weekend's Hurricane Irene event. And the answer is: pretty well. Nothing like what the folks on the coast and up the eastern seaboard have had to contend with.


There were some gusty winds, but only a few, and there was the briefest period of rain.


By last night, the passing storm left us with a very pleasant evening and nice late summer breezes, perfect for walking the dog or sitting on the upstairs porch.


And Sunday morning dawned clear and blue-skied and beautiful. It got a little warm this afternoon but this was a perfect summer day.


A nice one for morning coffee on the front porch, I'd say.
