Same here...except that the power only flickered a few times...never
actually went out.  PEPCO has done a fine job fixing their problems over
the last couple of years.

The wind blew a lot, but it wasn't as strong as I'd expected for a
hurricane passing 75 miles north of here.  Didn't even lose any large
branches...just small dead stuff and leaves.  I've got a damaged tree
that the county is supposed to removed, but even it didn't lose anything
large...which was a major worry given where it is, and what looks like
it could go any time now.  Appearances can be deceiving I guess.

I hope everyone else came through unscathed too.
