[SADXA] Last nights East side Storm

[Jerry Wothe]

Generally it sounds like we all did pretty good.
The Country Club, 49ers, took quite a bit of damage with several large trees coming roots up in the storm. We had a power glitch enough to reset the clocks in the house but that is all. I actually was not home at the time so missed the excitement but got texts from the neighbors telling us not to come home as the roads would be close which they were. Tanque Verde to Redington road was closed for a while until the water went down but we had a way to get around it. We got 1.5 inch of rain is all. 
Dodged a bullet on  that one.
