I still have no power...and there telling us it maybe be 3 to 4 weeks without power... Stinks I have to travel to get any phone service and internet.. So I may not post for a while. My house survived...but my fathers house was not so lucky... 2 trees went thought the house , 1 thru the truck..totalled, 1 thru his well house, 1 thru the garage, and 1 thru the shed.. I believe that the whole estate will be totaled along with his truck... He and my mother survived and unhurt so i am very thankful for that... My town was totally destroyed and I had to spend most of yesterday towing trees off the roads just to move around. The new only reported the rich areas and they look great compared to ours...oh well such is life. I hope everyone else is doing good... I have not heard of any deaths...which is great.. Thanks again for the prayers. Josh

Josh: Happy you and your family are alive and doing well. Stuff can be replaced. Does Earnie (IKR) live near you?

I have a good friend in Cypress, Texas who lost everything as well. He and his family survived and will rebuild.

Take care,

Dave

Josh I've been there and you and your family is in our thoughts and prayers.  I wish I were not on the other side the country, I'd take a week or two off and come help you clean up.
