Ferocious north-easter. Marina a maelstrom. Helped transient Looper try to secure his 44 foot powerboat, and offered night in the bunkie (declined). Hydro out all evening, so candlelight supper and early to bed. Early morning call to help move boats as a section of finger dock had broken. City crew also called to help, and help they did, although not really familiar with lines and cleats, but no one injured.

Still blowing like stink, but power on, and looking forward to watching the convention.
