We're ready for your reservation!

Just got the news - IVOL is back online. So we can now take reservations, send directions and everything else we need to do to take care of our guests.

It was an interesting situation. We got a message this morning that three things went wrong:
-The power went out, thanks to Irene.
-The server company had a backup generator, but it didn't work.
-When they got a new generator and hooked it up, there was a data line that also had to be hooked up.

Interestingly, a similar thing happened recently in our little town in North Carolina. The power went out to 911 because of a tornado, but the backup generator didn't work. Makes you wonder just how many people check their generators. Betcha it will be a lot more in the future.

Anyway, we're back in business. Thanks to all the IVOL folks who have really worked hard during the last 18 hours or so.

Stay tuned - the daybed story is coming...
