I apologize for leaving everyone hanging

My computer died a few weeks ago and I had to purchase a new one, then Ike came and went and took our phone/cable/electricity with it (It was really weird for us, because there wasn't any rain or thunder (we usually get rain from the hurricanes down south)), just wind and falling trees . It's really bizarre watching trees just topple over when there's no rain or anything. )

How is everyone else faring?

I guess we are all hanging in there. Sorry about all of your computer troubles, power outages, and such. Hope you are doing okay now.

Glad to have you back with us

OOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR

sounds to have been a very interesting time hope everything will soon be back to 'normal'

Speaking of rain and wind, I have a typhoon bearing down on me. It'll hit tomorrow afternoon. I'm in a pretty good place. Mountains break up a good chunk of the wind and I'm on high ground. I'm worried about power though. The power grid here took a beating from a large number of lighting strikes this summer.

Good Luck

Prayers for safety

That is another good reason to go to Hawaii.

They rarely have typhoons (hurricanes are the same thing).

Oh a few harmless water spouts have been spotted from Honolulu out in the ocean. That's minor.

About the only thing Hawaii is rightly concerned about are the tsunamis. They have evacuation notices posted and most people do not live near the shore lines like they do in the land of the nuts, flakes, and fruits (California). The Hawaiians are very smart in that most people do not live in the areas near the active volcanoes due to the chance of a lava flow and the vog that is in the air.

Thanks everyone, I'm doing fine. I just didn't want anyone to think I skipped out on them. I also wanted to make sure everyone else was okay. What we got is nothing compared to Texas ect., God bless 'em. You are all in my prayers.

The hurricane just missed my family. Praying for those without power, and much damage. Lord, have mercy.
