I haven't been out to check damage. I live in St Mary's County and my house is surrounded by trees! Still have power, but these trees are scary!

Glad nothing happened...but yes, scary nonetheless. |

There was a limb left over from the derecho that's hung up in the top of a tree. It moved, but it didn't come down. Unfortunately it seems to be hung up in a more precarious position now. |

But I was ready with a generator. |

Don't really live in a hotspot area for musicians with similar tastes, it seems. Thanks. Hope you all have a great and safe holiday this week!

|  | GOLD Supporting Member | | Join Date: Feb 2002 Location: Poolesville, Maryland | | | Yeah. If you want to play but there isn't anybody near you to play with then it looks like your decision is made. On the other hand I wouldn't go more 45 minutes to an hour each way.
