Re: T.S. DENNIS visits TN

Atlanta isn't that far East- we're about as far west as Pittsburgh. It just
seems like we're east because we have a coast. And we're about due north
from the panhandle of Florida. Thanks for the good thoughts anyway.

Lots of toppled plants. Some branches down, the crawlspace flooded. Bill
climbed up on the roof and forced a bunch of roof goo around the vents. Hope
that works, since we're due for T-storms every day this week.

The ground is so saturated it's like a slippery-slide. Lots of roads closed
nearby and many trees down. The good news is that it stopped raining for the
time being.
