Hurricane Irene


Irene may have only been a tropical storm when it hit Maine but it was still rainy and windy. Our power started to flicker even before Stratford was out. We lost power just after noon on Sunday but the worst of the storm didn't hit until midnight. We took advantage of a relaxing day and put together Anna's big girl bed. She was so excited she went in for her nap early. By bedtime she was asking for her brown crib back. We were lucky it only took two nights for her to love her new bed. The power returned late Monday morning just after Anna and I got home from buying ice to keep the food cool. We were fortunate since friends across town didn't see power returned until Friday afternoon.
