Curve,

I'm assuming you and yours all came through the storms in good order.

Nice shots there, awesome power in that storm. Hope the folks can get their lives together soon. :(

Yea, none of us were there and our office came through it okay.  We didn't own the building in any case but the concern we had revolved around our computers and even more importantly our files.  They were fine though.

Lots of people were not so lucky obviously.

I bet you can find a decent boat for cheap...  That has to be tough.

Wages were always top notch there for business people, I imagine it would be the same for carpenters...especially now.

I can check it out for you if you are serious.

bigsky...it has proven difficult to reach anyone there at the moment.  Give it some time, you don't want to be there right now anyway, no electricity, no food and very little water.

As soon as I am able to establish regular contact and things are close to normalised I'll let you know.
