Now that New Year's celebrations -- in Michigan this year -- and the latest snowfall are over, I'm headed home. Given the blizzard warnings for Long Island, I first called some friends in the Amagansett area and asked them to check that I still have power. Sandy and one or two other hurricanes have made me cautious about how long LIPA can take to get folks back on line. I figured that if there were problems, I would follow my long-standing custom of hanging out at Kit's house until it was all fixed. Reports were that the weather hype had exceeded the bad results for the Hamptons, at least.
Having checked the weather forecasts for Michigan and Long Island and a number of places in between, I concluded that there was a window of opportunity to return home. So I am en route at this point. Now if I can just outrun the forecasted freezing rain. Or, of course, they could be wrong again. As they say, more later.
