Well, one and all
My wife and I were just in D.C. on our honeymoon (cut short due to illness) and it was absolutely hysterical there. At the Phillips collection we were chased from the outdoor cafe as they were tying down the tables and chairs — and this was Friday!
Here in Philly … not so bad so far. The grocery stores are crowded, but the conversation among strangers is refreshingly not about the storm. The hardware stores are out of things like flashlights and batteries I understand, but the one near us is purgatorial so I never go there.
We live on a hill — Fairmount — so there's little danger of flooding, but I was thinking on the train trip home of all those people with homes in Delaware and the Eastern Shore of Maryland, not to mention coastal New Jersey.
Thanks so much Charlotte and Janice — "safe passage," I love that. Charley, good luck to you and yours and God's grace.
