We had the storm through northern California before you got it. Thankfully we didn’t lose power, though my doormat got blown down the hallway and the windows rattled so much I had to put in ear plugs to sleep.

Hi Victoria–

I wish I had thought of ear plugs.� The wind was banging the trees around the house so much that I couldn’t sleep, and it never occurred to me to use earplugs.

I’m glad you’re both ok! It was windy and crazy in So. CA yesterday too. I had an adventure getting a sheet of pegboard from Lowe’s to the car. It acted a big sail on my shopping cart. It could have been fun had I been in the right frame of mind for that.

I’ve had the experience of landing in high winds in Colorado Springs. It redefined “white knuckles” for me.

Hi Nancy–

It was So California that we flew into yesterday, so you know what I mean about the winds.

MD and I are signed up to give three lectures at a medical meeting in Colorado Springs on Jan. 12, so your comments about landing there will give us something to think about between now and then.

Cheers–

I for one, am happy to see that you are back home. Just as I clicked onto your blog, the weather was being reported on the news. In Ohio, we call that, weather.

Thanks for the good wishes.� We, for two, are happy to be back.

Cheers–
