A Reminder of How Lucky We Are

A glimpse of the national news reporting on the aftermath of cyclone Sandy shows me how lucky we were in Chilly Hollow. Folks to the southwest of us are struggling to stay warm during a heavy snowfall while folks along the coast all the way up to Maine have lost homes or loved ones while major metropolitan areas are struggling to keep order among chaos.  We didn't even lose a tree and today the river is down enough I will be able to go to the post office and grocery store if I choose.

So think of those who weren't so lucky and donate to places like the Salvation Army or the American Red Cross if you don't have a local charity that deserves your hard earned cash.  Share a bit of your good fortune with those whose luck ran out earlier this week, please.
