We're at the Days Inn on Alexander Springs Rd. in Carlisle. All the bucket trucks are gone this morning, and the local TV station says there have been power outages so the trucks were probably called out during the night.

Yes, we're staying here in Carlisle and will head home to Boston tomorrow.

The turnout at the fairgrounds yesterday was lower than normal, but I know the threat of Irene changed plans for many people. Our hotel said they had many cancellations before Corvettes at Carlisle even started. It's a shame, but we all had a wonderful time here Thursday, Friday and Saturday!
