Hello Irene~Chatham, Ma

Howdee all,

We haven't seen the brunt of the storm yet..it shouldn’t be too bad here in Chatham, Ma.

We had a nice walk early morning and late morning took a drive around town.

The winds had picked up.Irene~Late morning_001

There was minor flooding, in a few low lying areas.

    Just a bit of a blow up here in Gloucester. Chatham probably got hit a bit harder.

    Looks like you, and many others, may have dodged this bullet.

    So sandblasting makes you look younger huh? I may have to try that if it removes wrinkles. ;)

    Hello again dear Dawn. Glad you are okay. All is back to normal here in Andover. Not so good in CT though, as you know.

    Glad you are ok, Dawn!! Great series of photos showing the shoreline and storm! We're still just dull, super hot heat here in Kansas.
