We have a total of three landslides in the Baltimore area from the storm. The one that has been on the news. Then another blocked a lane of another road, and the last one at a cemetary.

Cemetary landslides are bad juju. Don't want the relatives being unearthed and washed downstream. Happened here with the hurricane and some bodies have never been recovered.

Glad to hear it. Bad enough to bury relatives once; no fun to have to do it twice.

Jim, glad to hear you made it to church!

Good morning FTE woodchucks and woodchuck wannabees. Looks like the rain is about to stop so will be able to get out and do some yard work. Also want to get the 5th wheel hitch into the truck bed so I can hook up to the RV. I have to change out 7 tires before we go anywhere - all the tires on this rig are 6 years old so I don't trust them, especially not with the weight we carry on them. I actually want to upgrade from 15" to 16" wheels so I have more tire choices. That will be our big expense this year.
