Vineland

I packed up the car and left CC at 11:15. I stopped at McDonald's in Woodstown for lunch. Danny and I had a berger and fries. I stopped at the bank and we arrived here around 1 pm.

I noticed the cover was off the grill and a large branch had come down in the yard. There must have been a storm with strong winds.

I unloaded the car and put some things away. I was expecting Rich from Toastmasters to come at 2 pm. I was the treasurer for the Toastmasters but haven't been able to attend much since Ted's illness and death. Now that I driving back and forth to CC, it is difficult to drive to Ocean City, especially by myself at night. I had asked them to find a new treasurer and Mary Fran accepted the position. She will do a fine job. Rich came to get the records and went with me to close out the account. My bank doesn't have a branch in Atlantic City where Mary Fran lives.

When I took Danny for his walk, I saw where the storm damaged my Irish Junipers. The wind and rain knocked down the branches. Just what I need is more work. The heavy snow didn't do any damage to them and don't know why the rain storm did. The wind must have whipped the branches open and the rain weighed them down. I should have tied them up for the winter.

We did have strong winds the other day around here. In fact, my Mom lost power from 10 am Monday until 3 pm Tuesday. I had heard of a couple of trees going through a barn roof.

Terri and Steve have lots of branches to gather up too. He, he, he. It's them not me!

We are off the get BOTH girls for the night. This will be a first for us.
