You are quite correct, Russ and thanks for asking. We had a tornado very near, put a tree through our neighbor's new $4000 shed - looked like somebody took a chainsaw to it. I don't think I could cut it any cleaner. We're the very end of the electrical grid here - the neighbors with the shed are next to last. They're elderly singers in the Ga. hall of fame (country) and we lent them our generator, and parked the RV out front and ran off the generator in that. Saved their freezer meat (and ours of course). Did have a big tree crack full circle next to the house (showed up when the leaves started drooping) so had a tree guy out and made the required "donation" for the storm. Anyway, been a busy time for us with all that but we're back up and running now.

Hope everyone else is doing fine!

Matt & Connie

We're fine, Russ, no problems at all - thanks. We do have two sets of friends in Ft. Meyers missing at the moment and certainly could use prayers for their safety.

Thankful we got out of Florida.

Matt

Had one set check in - Ralph Yost - won the tarpon tournament down there any number of times. He had 14" water in the house, I told him to get the baseboards off right away to keep water from wicking further up the walls.

Still 1 couple MIA - hope they turn up soon.

Matt, Connie I was thinking about you both. It was a good move when you moved out of Florida.

Russ, hows the ankle doing.

Leonard?
