We have power back now, and not a single tree fell on our property  though next door a huge evergreen fell and missed our neighbors' house by inches. I heard the tree fall at ten o'clock, in the darkness and the wind.

My mom slept in the living room, with the battery radio on all night. When I woke up at one point and crept around the house, it felt like Spielberg's War of the Worlds. Very scary.
