It's been a scary couple of days here on the northeastern side of the country. Hurricane Sandy ravaged the coast and left millions homeless, without power, and facing months if not years of cleanup and rebuilding. Luckily, here in the Lehigh Valley, we didn't get hit as bad as some areas. At home, we only lost power briefly during the early hours of Tuesday morning. I don't know if she had anything to do with it, but if so, thanks to one of our boarders, Audra, who works for PPL, for making sure we have electricity! Boots and Saddle, on the other hand, is still in the dark. Nothing like mucking 30+ stalls in the pitch black.
Boots also sustained some damage, mostly to the slate roof of our ancient hay barn and to one of the pastures and the lower outdoor ring where a tree fell through a power line and the fences. Still no word on when we'll be back on the grid. Hopefully soon!
I hope everyone and their horses are safe in the area. And prayers to the people in coastal areas who have lost so much.
