My son has been trying to get back to the ship and finally got a flight out at 9:20 today out of Orlando instead of Tampa. He started with Sunday at 9:20 then Monday. The flights were cancelled on Monday because there were no planes at the airport yet......Wow, I never thought of that. So now he leaves at 9:20 today. Horses are perfect, my bed was completely soaked but hey, the couch is comfy....... I am just happy I had something to come home to. I was expecting the worse. No elec, stifiling hot, but I have all my camping gear set up in the kitchen. No problem..... Hopefully we will get it back on soon. This one was worse for us. #3. Can't wait to start riding again...... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Howard Bramhall" <howard9732@xxxxxxx> To: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2004 9:19 AM Subject: Re: [RC] [RC] Hurricane Jeanne-last post We only lost power for one day this time compared to a full week after Frances. My theory is that all the trees that were gonna fall fell during the previous two hurricanes, so, this time, there weren't many trees left (at least along the power lines). Plus, at least Jeanne had the decency to blow thru much faster than Frances, who lingered on and on and on (kinda how I write) until you throw in the towel and say, "OK, God, take me now, please, cause I just can't take any more of this." Then, the minute after the hurricane winds end, you lose power, the heat index kicks in over 100, and you find yourself driving over to the 7/11 to fight to the death for that last bag of ice. The super markets have no food, the gas stations no gas, but, heck, even if the beer is warm, at least they don't seem to run out of that. Warm beer with no AC living in the Swamp from Hell; doesn't get much better. Tennessee, she's calling me, my Tennessee. cya, Howard (we're done, right? I mean that's the last one, doncha think?) ----Original Message Follows---- From: Jackie Hardin <jwinkleman_2001@xxxxxxxxx> To: Cowgirgoof@xxxxxxx, ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [RC] Hurricane Jeanne-last post Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2004 05:08:14 -0700 (PDT) Hi Becky. I hope everything went well. We only lost power for 2 days this time and no structural damage. I saw one of the news reporters in Clermont. It looked pretty bad. Let us know how you are when you get a chance. Take Care, Jackie Cowgirgoof@xxxxxxx wrote: Hey All, Please say a prayer for us- This time, we are in the direct path of hurricane Jeanne... We may experience between 85-90 mph sustained winds at our place. Worst part is we live in a 15 year old mobile home (that is in in pretty good shape and well-built). Best part is that both my husband and I have to go to work tonight at Disney on our respective ride-out crews again, so we should be safe. Always exciting to take care of and feed 81 head of horses in wind like that! Wish us luck... Becky in Clermont --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
