the ' Winds of Change

roared through Southern Ontario. People died as trees and material blew around and down.

Here. We fared well. We saw black and horizontal rain and roaring.

Some locales got battered. Trees and powerlines fell - on the road and on cars and tents < people died >. The QuarterMile had uprooted trees and limbs smacking the blockwork rails. BBQ s actually were toppled on the backdeck - including the food sitting there.


And power is out at the Q along w/ 6 - 10 000 other homes. Estimates have power back in a few days
 - Eek ! thats a long time.

 Approximately, 10 people at the Q' were enjoying the holiday weekend for Canada. And no water for toilets b/c the pump is idle. Not a good situation w/ a crowd staying over. But the guys staying can help w/ the clean up AND finishing the food that was there.

Overall. Glad its not me - cuz I'd be freaking, I mean damage < tree limbs are hanging by the bark up high >. I don't think that I do that well in exciting conditions - unless its the casino.

I finally, got through to the Q'. Yes, everything happened and some clean up was possible. No electricity and not expected til Mon 4 PM at the earliest. There is a backog of dishes < no extra hotwater available > plus the wash as people leave and beds are unmade.

In my role as nominal helper, I'll be needed to straighten out the kufuffle.
