Martha:

Thank-you for the Portraits posted it was an amazing Storm. My old neighborhood in Norway was torn through and one of my neighbors had a daycare on Ashton road in Norway and they lost everything ~ Their Home and Business in One Day. They have 3 Beautiful Children, I used to walk by with my chocolate Cocker Spaniel "Guiness" and see their 2 puppy pugs who loved to chase us and visit w/us. The Pennesseewassee area is soo Beautiful. and my heart goes out to this Family.

Hi Martha, I am heading for Ellsworth Maine next weekend to visit Woodlawn Museum, former home of Colonel John Black, my ancestor, Have you ever been there? I was there 4 years ago but am returning with my friend John as I want him to tour it also. I live in Brantford Ontario Canada, about and hour and a half from Toronto, Karen

The tragic day in Maine really hit home for me. I lost my son, Danny, 8 years ago (as in Aug.-8th month). I tried to revive him after his cardiac arrest. His best friend, Bill, passed away, and his ashes were scattered when Tropical Storm Bill was off shore in Virginia Beach, VA. Both men's ashes were scattered in the Chesapeake Bay at the same spot; their favorite fishing place. My heart goes out to the families. I wish it were this time next year for them.

This tragic event was heard about here in Philly. My condolences and sympathies to those involved in the tragedy. Mother nature can really churn up a problem reminding us we are humans. I've always loved the sea in Maine. Especially the gongs of the buoys.

How sad. Another poster stated the human is drawn to witness (and I'll put it a bit differently here) nature's might. I know this for a fact. I like in Northern Alabama and tornadoes come through often. Fatal tornadoes. I was in one many years ago in which a dry cleaning store collapsed (with me and many others in it.) Unfortunately, the manager of the dry cleaning establishment went to the drive through glass doors to look. His wife went to get him to come to safety. They both perished as the tornado hit the building. Never go to "just look." Always go to "take cover!"

Hi Martha:

I'm not sure if you have cured your TMJ yet (today's re-run discussed this). I too suffered for a year with a painful jaw and misaligned bite. My dentist was not able to cure me with bite guards. I had my dermatologist inject my jaw with Botox--cured! Something to consider....Gary

Oh, martha your guest Peter Arnell, I love him, finaly someone, steped up to the plate and did something about this car problem. It looks wonderful, I hope in the future he comes out with a little mini truck, I have out door dog and don't want to put her in side the vehicle. Thank You again for your time and drive to do this.
