Hurricane Ike: we survived!

[Rapture]

Laura's back yard got tore up... a tree fell on her house but it doesn't look like it did too much damage... more damage was done to her yard, her deck, and her neighbor's house that the trees fell on. But she has a generator over there and they're doing pretty well otherwise.

Generators ROCK!

It is good to be hearing from everyone that made it through okay!

Good luck with the cleanup ahead.

We cleaned up the day after the hurricane just to have it flood again that night...

I'm so happy to hear that everybody has made it through this weather in safety. Understand we were thinking of all of you and crossing fingers and toes that all would turn out well.

Thank the gods for finger and toe crossing!

Be well everyone

hah, I remember living in Illinois way back in the day. I LOVE that state.

Aww. :[
I have become quite fond of Illinois's temperature ranges and weather. Plus I'm a sucker for thunderstorms.

I happen to like this state! It's cozy for me I suppose.

Well we lived! No major damage, and we have power back today, so not that bad. We did lose a lot of food because we couldn't find ice anywhere, and my feed barn was damaged enough to get some feed and hay wet.

Our town is still out of power though, along with a ton of people. Took us three hours to get gasoline in the next city over even. But we made it.

Glad to hear you're okay, or as well as can be expected.

Just checking in to say I'm alive... still no electricity at my house so I've taken the snakes off feed for the time being. Had a few trees fall down but no damage to my house. Some of the neighbors weren't so fortunate.... I am just at work right now so I'll try to give everyone updates here and there when I can. Got some groceries yesterday and a full tank of gas in my car today so it's all good.....

Good hear hear from you Diana and thanks for letting us know about Laura too. We've all been very worried about you folks.

Justin, happy to hear you, Diana and Laura are OK. This year has just been way too nasty with all these storms.
Good to see our prayers helped
