    should probably be ok for this storm.... and yes, going to a
    shelter this year might have been much more of a challenge for
    them....
    Probably a good bit of a challenge, especially with no family
    to help during some of the time. Neither Mom nor Dad drive now
    so they would have had to have somebody take them.
    Indeed... it was definitely a good thing they didn't need to
    go...
    Called Dad today for his 89th birthday; he'd just had a therapy
    session and was quite worn out.
    I can imagine... Was he otherwise doing well...?

    He sounded quite frail. Don't know if it was from being tired or what.

    Could be just from being tired... did you also get to talk to Steve's
    Mom...? or his sister...?

    Talked to Mom also. They called Steve for his birthday; Dad didn't talk
    much but sounded a lot stronger.
