wrote: Wendy I feel so sorry for the folks in central coastal Florida they have had a decades worth of bad storms in one season so far, we have had tons of rain and some high wind but NOTHING like Diana and company have had, this is insane... Actually, Dave, we are lower than central here in PSL, and this part of the East Coast got ravaged by Frances but we largely missed the others, thankfully. The "Return of Ivan the Terrible" dumped about 50 inches of rain over a week, but we never got the storm itself. Where Frank and I live is about 10 miles inland and though we live on a canal we are high and dry - no flooding. All things considered, we and most of our friends are very fortunate. I know people who lost everything. Sometimes I feel that I shouldn't joke about all of this, but humor has always kept me sane. No point in a sour face! Diana Exactly Right Diana, it is humor, even gallows humor, which permits us to cope. Am well familiar with your area, used to live in South Florida and collect reptiles all the way up and down the coast including the PSL area. Also my alternate number in Jacksonville covers all the way to Homestead from JAX on both coasts and the center of the state, her territory has taken it on the chin damage wise and I have had crews in the area doing damage restoral to our system. (CSX Railroad Communications) One of my Tech's mother and dads home in PSL was heavily damaged to the point they had to board up and move inland to a relatives house. Good luck to all of you there.
