Hurricane!

Actually, Hurricane Irene was pretty anticlimactic here - mostly it just rained for a long time. But today Ben and I walked down to the Schuylkill, and there was definitely some stuff underwater that wasn't supposed to be there:

The water was also moving much faster than usual, so it's a good thing neither of us fell in.

In conclusion, it was a good excuse to spend the entire weekend inside in my pajamas, cross-stitching and watching TV. I would appreciate more weather that prevents me from having to do anything (without causing major damage) in the future.
