We didn&#8217;t lose power nor internet.  I had to goto the Jeep dealer this morning and encountered several traffic lights that were out and I saw several downed trees in yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I took my dog for a short walk today and took a few pictures of our neighborhood.  Nothing major but so many leaves and branches in the road.  I did find a downed tree and trash cans that were blown over.  I knew that our cans might get blown over, so I decided to not put them out today and wait until next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, here go the pictures&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

any damage here; nor loss of power or internet or anything else&#8230;  Cold temps are coming and I couldn&#8217;t imagine being without power for our heater or cooking.  I remember having ice storms in Huntsville and our power would be out for a week at a time and I will never take it for granted that I have power.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hell, I remember it raining hard with a little thunder-n-lightening and the power going out because Huntsville Utilities just didn&#8217;t want to replace the power transformer that kept failing.  They&#8217;d repair it or whatever and as long as the lights came back on, they were satisfied.  I think at one point, it became so damaged that it HAD to be replaced and we rarely had a power outage after that.  It affected everyone on our side of Sheri Drive and the adjacent side of Davies Drive behind us.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know some of you are without power and I pray you get power back soon.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The remnants of Hurricane Zeta came through North Georgia on Thursday morning and left quite a bit of people without power, etc. We were unaffected for the most part.
