Guest guest Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 , Thank you for your kind words. I am OK. It was a pretty bad storm where I live. Flooding was pretty bad. From my neighbors I hear it was the second worst in at least 30 years. Wind not as bad as last time but tide was still very, very high. The storm came across Chesapeake Bay at the VA Beach/Norfolk area and then up the Rappahannock River pushing water all the way. Had about 6 inches of rain, winds up to 50 MPH and a very, very high tide. Could have been worse. Not sure how much higher than normal the tide was but it came into the community where I live. There was one area that looked like a branch of the river back several blocks. I live on high ground so it never threatened my house but it made a BIG mess down the street. Neigbor had a car flooded. From the others who have lived here longer I understand Isabelle was worse several seasons ago. Sounded as if I lived on the ocean with very big waves on the normally calm river. I doubt if you saw my area on the news although they did send a news crew out from Richmond. I may go out on the river today in my kayak to paddle through the marsh just to have some peace. It is my meditation place. I am alone with minnows, beavers, muskrats and even saw what looked like a mink recently. I watch the butterflies and the dragon flies, which are my favorite. They are all different colors and sit on top of the reeds looking like stars on the top of a Christmas tree. They frequent my flower garden along with the hummingbirds and the goldfinches. If I am lucky I will see one of the reclusive birds that live in the marsh. Soon the migratory birds will be coming. We have eagles that have been coming into the neighborhood more and more frequently. Was swimming last week, actually floating, when one landed about 20 feet from me on the beach. I stayed still and got to watch him up close. Most of the time it is a peaceful and beautiful place to live. I live in rural Virginia on the Rappahannock River just north of Tappahannock. This is where the the Revolution against the British began. " The British Stamp Act of 1765 led directly to the American Revolution, and it was in Tappahannock that one of the first confrontations occurred. Leading merchant Archibald Ritchie, who supported the Stamp Act, was labelled as " the greatest enemy of his country. " On February 27, 1766, gentlemen from nine counties gathered at Leedstown to draft the " Resolutions " that led Virginians to disobey Parliament. They also made plans to publicly humiliate Ritchie and the Scots merchant Archibald McCall. These events occurred seven years before the Boston Tea Party.

If you are curious and want to learn more about where I live. http://www.essex-virginia.org/index.htm We are out of the way but if you are ever in the area let me know you are coming. We can share some oysters at Lowery's. I will make you a cup of tea and we can drink it on the porch and you can see my little part of the world.
