wow, SSG! Glad no one was hurt and nothing was damaged. Are those your hosta blooms peeking out from the bottom of the photo?

Holly, that is too funny that Ric also has a cpap--so, we share sleep apnea, droopy eyelids, and the need for the identical lumbar support belt. Are you sure we're not long-lost relatives from somewhere way back when? ;-)

Checked back home this morning to find the power back on, so here we are settled in again! Thank goodness! And now I know that the smart meter they installed a couple years ago is responsible for our speedier turn around times with power outages--yay!!

I'm not sure what the best way is to deal with plants that have been damaged in this way. Do I just cut them back? Try to right them with plant supports? Something else?
