Karyn and I are thrilled to report that we didn’t have ANY issues with the storm, in fact… the weather here has been fantastic (sorry those who were affected).

I’m not being lazy, but Glenn Atwell Jr said what I wanted to say about yesterday "Awesome afternoon despite rain, cold, and power outages. Great friends new and old.
