Good thought! I hope their home is alright. It could be that they are just without electricity.

I hope you are right. If I remember correctly, they are on Long Island where there is still a lot of power outage.

I remember their beautiful backyard with the fish ponds and lots of trees.

Still no word...anyone???

Cliff and Joann's last post was about the new rug and last response was on 10/27, two days before the hurricane hit her area, but during the evacuation process.

Of course, she could be taking a sabbatical from this forum, like I do many times throughout the years I have been a member. With so much damage around her area, if I lived there and my home was fine, I would be out helping others and not posting on the forum.

I was going to make a visit over to the pond forum and see if anyone over there has heard. They were frequent visitors over there a few years back when I posted there a lot too. I feel bad if they lost power for a long while as they could have lost a lot of their lovely koi.

hi everyone, thanks for the concern.
We were without power and without Internet for ten days...
the Internet has been intermittent until today...we had
our router and modem as well as the wiring changed.
after today's service I hope we're finally back for good.

We were lucky, no damage to our house, unfortunately though many
on our block and surrounding areas were effected by the large falling oaks.
Our pond and fish are fine....
glad to be back :)

Cliff and Joann, glad to hear no damage to your house, pond, or fish! I was concerned about your beautiful garden.

Glad to hear you, your home, and your fish are all ok! Thanks for checking in!

Welcome back...glad you are OK. :)

Awesome, glad to hear you are OK.
