Got home last night to find my Beetle body still on the dolly, but 20 feet across the driveway and onto my patio! Mind you, two of the wheels are bolted down so they don't roll. Lucky it didn't go over.

Just got one bar's worth of cell service back about 15 minutes ago. Fades in and out. Still no power. Going to have a lot of protein to put on the grill tonight!

  We fared well. No damage, but I can't say the same for some of my neighbors. Got electric back on Friday. One of our friends loaned us a generator so we didn't lose any food. That convinced me to buy a generator for the future.  =whiteflag

It was only spooky down this way for about 10-15 minutes around quarter to six with wind, rain and darkness. We lost power just long enough to make the clocks start blinking. There wasn't much damage here at all.
Kings Highway between Mullica Hill and Paulsboro was still closed on Friday. I saw it was opened today on my way home from work so I took the scenic route home from Woodbury. It looks like that storm from Karate Kid II rolled through especially around Mickelton area.
I never saw such destruction in South Jersey, and if I didn't see it with my own eyes you could not have convinced me it was that bad.

Don't try to tough it out, JackWagen. Clayton is opening up a shelter. And be careful with a chainsaw cutting all those downed tree debris on your driveway.

Got Dan out after 3 days. Have power but the wires are laying on front lawn which means getting disconnected before any work can start

    Shawn: Sorry to see all that damage. Looks like the cars escaped. Any roof leakage? Any problem getting the  insurance adjuster out there?

    We may have suffered the same fate if it wasn't that last Fall, we had tree's and limbs removed that posed a threat.
