Survived Bill

Hurricane Bill started affecting our area at about 7pm and blew hardest from around 9:30 to midnight. It acted as forecasted so we probably had around 50 knots of wind at the worst of it. Even though the waterfront nearby was not very wide, enough waves were kicked up to send spray over the side and keep us heeled over from time to time. We were kept off the dock by a web of lines but one in particular, that stretched to the far end of the dock (about 100 feet), seemed to do the most work. We survived unscratched. The locals have been coming by to let us know that this storm was nothing compared to what they get in the winter. Whatever.... we're very, very happy it's over. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.
