RE: [RC] [RC] update on hurricane/tropical storm frances - Teri HunterWhoo Hoooo, 2 down 1 to go. That is the price you pay for living in paradise. Horses are ok. Stood in the barn the whole time. Braved the wind to go and feed. I stayed with my parents since I live in a mobile home. Came home and had no power for 2 days. I got power but no cable. WHAT! no email. That was the hard part. I do have 8 new leaks and I think the trailer shifted a little since the doors don't close. Oh well, the good news is my son is coming home after his second tour of being in Afghanistan. What more could a person ask for. The bad news he is coming in the weekend of the first ride.....Usually happens. After having 2 boys in the Navy for 7 years they always pick a time to come home from deployment during a ride. I tried to tell the captain that was not a good weekend for me. Guess he just didn't listen. I think the holes in the roof said you need to hurry up and build your new house. Will do..... Life is WONDERFUL....

We lost power at midnight and didn't get it back till, 3 pm today. Got our little generator going to get our well and refridgerator and a few lights going. Heard the transformer blow at the neighbors. Horses are standing in the barn and I went out and grabbed the rest of the roundbale before it got soaked and put it in the barn. They won't step a foot out",Heck, mom, there are trees coming down. Had to take 3 fallen trees/limbs off my crossfence. And lots of 1-2 footer with leaves everywhere. The pines were bending in half last night. I'd sayd we had at least 50mph gusts, don't care what they show in Tv, but we live on a ridge in the county too.... Hope all is well for the florida folks..have an uncle in St. Lucie, don't know how he is doing yet. From: Ed Kilpatrick <whytrotfarms@xxxxxxxxx> To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] update on hurricane/tropical storm frances Date: Tue, 7 Sep 2004 06:44:05 -0700 (PDT) i am in the panhandle part of florida. if you look on the map and see where florida, georgia, and alabama come together, that is where i live. TS frances passed by about 30-35 miles to the east of us yesterday. we were on the "good side" of it. we had quite a bit of rain, a lot of wind, but no serious damage. we were without electricity for only a short time (3 hours) yesterday morning. many of my friends and relatives in central and southern florida fared far worse. this was a very large, very destructive hurricane. the amount of rainfall was incredible in some places. it will, of course, take some time to get things up and running farther down the state. meanwhile, our eyes are on ivan! ed _________________________________________________________________ Don?t just search.
