Sorry for the delay, but we won't be drafting the fantasy teams until later tonight -- Fort Awesome lost power for about 18 hours thanks to the remnants of Hurricane Ernie and Baltimore Gas 'n Electric's incompetence. This is about the 10th time in the last two years our lights have gone out. They're considering changing their name over to Baltimore Gas, because they no longer really provide electricity to any of their customers.
Of course, it was a bad storm ...
We lost about half of the big tree out front. It looks pretty bad, but to be fair that beechwood pear is the Buckhalter of our lawn-and-garden all-star team. Since we began operations at the fort, I'm not sure it's made it more than two months without a major injury.
Still, that's a pretty thick section of trunk to lose. I posed with my sweet, sweet sneakers to give you some sense of scale.

Hey, I have a great landscaper here that could pick that tree up and drop it on the car in the background.
If only you had a fence; he specializes in fences.
