    USAK where are you?

    Hope Rocky checks in soon.
    He is spitting distance from the Schuylkill River in Spring City, PA and the eye of Sandy pretty much passed over him.
    Would hate to hear about the new underwater kilt making process.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    Yeah, I've been wondering about all our kilted brethren who live up there. I know North Carolina didn't get the worst of it, but Matt and the rest of the folks who inhabit that area probably have had some troubles, I'm sure.

    Here's hoping everyone's OK. Check in when you can, folks!

    Looking - the winds are down, and system is pretty much stalled, so the heavy rains over this huge multi state area aren't due to subside until friday -ish.
    It's even getting Mr. R-Kilt, Robert Pel wet in Ontario.

    If nothing else, USA Kilts sits up on a rise, no creeks in sight. That does not mean they didn't lose power, I just don't know. We dodged the bullet in upstate NY big time from what they had us prepared for. That's okay, we took one for the team last year with Irene, then Lee a week later...

    Hopefully, Rock is well. Possibly out of power!? My friend, near Philly, said they got a ton of high winds and heavy rain, but not near the devastation of Jersey and NYC.

    All is well here at the shop. Mac and I were the only 2 here yesterday and we left at 2 PM (got to take an afternoon nap!). Power stayed on at home all night. Came in today at 6:30 to assess any damage and all was fine. Ian, Kelly, Sue and Mac all came in normal times as there was no wind and only a SLIGHT HINT of rain. Then at 1 PM, well after any danger from high winds and rain, we lost power. Luckily, it was only out for an hour.

    Thank you all for your concern. Production timeframes remain un-affected.

    LOL Frank easy to miss there - The river bend is 1/2 mile north and s-shaped putting it also 2/3 mile east. Out here rivers are easy to spot - it's where the trees are - there, the trees get in the way -
    Of course a foot of rain here would flush Albuquerque down the Rio Grande.
    UPDATE: Great to hear Rocky - does the front of your building still say Print Shop?

    When we lived in south central Wyoming Chuck, the country was much like where you live. Where you found trees, you'd find a creek or river. Here ya can't see 1/4 mile for the darn trees!
