Not sure how many have read TBH but I talked to Dena. Bobby & Dena are both ok. How did everyone else fair?

Family in Angleton are fine just no electricity!! Family staying with me that live in Freeport don't know anything yet. Also family owns two beach houses in Surfside that do not know anything yet! Got a call into Tomme to see how his house faired!

I talked to Tomme yesterday and he was staying in SA so he might not know yet. Hope everyone made it ok

Heard last night that power is back on in Santa Fe. At least around my in-laws house.
Hope everyone gets back on track soon.

My cousins house in Freeport is ok! Got power and water!! Tomme is back in Rockport but have not heard from him yet but he was getting reports everything is A ok.

Tons of damage in my area. Moderate roof damage and lots of my trees down...but it could have been much worse.

no power, water, phone, at this time...and not expected anytime soon.

Just like on Gilligans Island,

No phone, no lights, no motor cars,
Not a single luxury,
Like Robinson Carousoe it's primitive as can be.

I have put my targets back out and can shoot my bow, so there's that.

Mark,

PM sent. If you can't call at least email me as you seem to have access to a PC. We need to chat about next week!

Chunky · 09-15-2008, 07:27 PM

Roger,

I got the message. I have limited PC access at work. We have massive generators here. I will try and call you. Right now, my elk trip is in danger. I don't know that I could fly off to go hunting and leave the family home in the dark with no power or services.

Mark

I completely understand. No worries. If you do make it, make sure to call me so I can pick you up. Take care of your family!

Chunky · 09-15-2008, 09:12 PM

Thanks Roger,

When I made the plans, Kevin indicated that he would be able to pick me up at the air port. I get in mid-morning....around 10:30 or something like that. If it would work better for the whole operation for me to ride with you....that is fine with me as well. I doubt I will be able to do the coordination. I can check here and TBH everyday from work, and maybe things will get better sooner than they are telling us.

Right now I can only keep shooting and hope for the best. It would be hard to pack by flashlight, and can't wash anything of course.

I'm posting from my cell...minor roof damage, downed fence, and still no power. Luckily I have a generator to run once in a while to keep my 3 freezers going.

RBH reporting in alive and well the garage and house took a tree.

We have no power running on generators. River Plantation looks like a war zone trees down everywhere.

Positive thoughts! Having you ride out from here works for me too. If you get here early enough you could do your wash here. up to you. Keep in touch any way you can.
