Much of the state still without power. I was lucky. JCPL - just cant provide lights!! Not as prepared I guess. It was MJ electric fixed ours, supplemental crews all over saying jcpl doesnt know what theyre doing, re coordinating repairs. I dont know about that, Its a LOT of damage to repair. Like the wizard of oz storm!!! Working like mad to make repairs they are. Thanks for asking.

Just a quick hello!

I am back now, in reach of an affiliate and getting in some good workouts.
Did 800 meter run, 50 ring dips (differing levels of assist) run 800 m,
50 wall balls started with 20# gasping grabbed a 10 half way through
row 800 meters (toes hurt) 50 lunges each side for 100 total, run 800 meters (rower was busy) after lunges lungs weren't the limiting factor.

Cliff - Hope the foot issue isn't too bad. I'm still for the MRI results on my foot; it hurts less than it used to but the lump is still there.

Deb - Hang in there. I'm from SE Louisiana so "hurricane aftermath" is way too familiar to me.

Tweaked my neck a day or so ago (probably when I PRed the snatch) so taking a couple days off. In prep for resuming workouts, and since it is my birthday today (United States Marine, 237 years today) :) I just bought a set of bumper plates. Can't wait to work on the Oly lifts knowing I can dump the weights if I went up too much between sets.

Deb - Our thoughts & prayers are with you folks!! Going without power for days is awful. We were without it for 10 days back in '08. Not fun - and the weather NICE after the storm! Can't imagine it with cold & that Noreaster that went through!

Nice work guys!!
