I just wanted to extend my thoughts and prayers to any of you that are
going to experience the hurricane. May you and your loved ones be safe
and get through this without harm

" God Bless You All "

Jamie,
He is "supposed" to get hit. He's been offline for a while, so I assume
he's lost power. He is also one of those hard-headed people that are
staying despite mandatory evacuation. :eek:

He's battling Charley with his cane... its a good weapon, ya know.

Stay safe, Ray!

If Ray is in Tampa I think he missed it, but it is headed right for me
on the east coast. Of course by the time it gets across the state it
shouldn't be much.
Maybe Ray left Tampa! There are a lot of people over here from there,
and they aren't too happy it is following them!! :)

We're holding our breath here in coastal Georgia. In spite of the
current predictions that we should "only" have some surges, tropical
storm force winds and flooding, it ain't over til Charlie is
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out to sea. Hope any of you in SC or NC are braced.

Thank you all...we were very fortunate ...it was due to hit us head on
but it did a hard right further south around Port Charlotte and hit at
145 mph and then continued to cut a swathe thru the state ..and is
currently heading toward the Carolinas..estimated damage in Florida is
$15 billion.. the number of deaths has not been annouced yet.. Now!! for
next week we have Hurricane Danielle..
