Echo and Holt 45 were at last years festival, and one again rocked the crowd this year!

What a beautiful day for the 3rd Annual Black Walnut Winery – Fire & Wine Festival!

I got there around 6:30, and the music was already playing, and a small crowd had already started to settle in for the night’s events.

When I was talking to one of the Sadsburyville Fire Company members, he told me that there had been 3 deliveries of wood pallets, totally approximately 950!

A look back – Hibernia Park

Hibernia Park 315 - The Brandywine Creek West Branch, on the South side of Hibernia Park in Coatesville PA, after the heavy rains of September 30th from the remains of a Tropical Storm, Nicole.
Hibernia Park 315

It should be not secret at this point, to anyone living on the East Coast of the United States, that if it is not raining, just wait.

I will…

At the moment, Hurricane Joaquin is headed toward the East Coast…

Which means flooding… Somewhere…

It just so happens, that 5 years ago today, Tropical Storm Nicole, had just passed over the Chester County area, drenching the area, over night, with several inches of rain.

Silly me, I grabbed, my camera, and went out…

Out to Hibernia Park in Coatesville walking along the West Branch of the Brandywine Creek.

As you can see, there was a great deal of water, especially when you compare these two images, taken 7 months apart, during a Photography Meetup.

Do you remember Tropical Storm Nicole?

Are you ready for any type of storm?

What tips do you have to get through the next couple of days here in Chester County?
