Thom-
you lucky one you lol
i think it was a miracle your power stayed on- there's still lots of
people without power here-i am lucky too- i stayed at my daughter's last
night as she has no trees around her house-
but it was scary there too as the wind was pounding at the house- we
thought the windows would blow but lucky they didn't- on the trip home
it looked like a war zone with all the branches down everywhere-
i was happy to see my house standing and even my old barn still
standing-
one of my fences had blown down but that was all the damage apart from
broken branches every where-
i'm thankful everyone is safe here but that was a hard and scary thing
to go through-
this is beginning to be a year to remember for awful weather :) i
wouldn't have minded had you posted bits of my email-

We are still having trouble with our "net
MSN is in Redmond, Wa and they were hit hard.

I'm having trouble with stuff I've got in Memory. They are coming back
but ?????

Keep taking your meds and your memory will be just fine, Tom. ;-)

Group;

An Overturned Catamaran washed ashore with no sign of the Crew. They
found a sheet of paper with instruction on how to operate the
"Liferaft" No one could have survived that storm in a life raft.

Also, there are 3 mountain climbers missing on Mt Hood from back East.
It looks like all hope is gone for them. I hope not but it doesn't look
good. The weather has been to bad for the rescue crews to do their job.

Hi, Ol Thom,

Glad you're ok. We never lost power here in Everett; so we're fine. But
I'm sure having Katrina flashbacks!

Take care!

Frank and the krewe

Joe,

My Son is the Mountain Man. The first time I went up Mt Baker and seen
the height, it scared the S--t out of me. He took to it like "Duck to
Water"

Mt Hood is a dangerous Mountain, especially a winter climb.

We had a dozy of a Storm out here this past week-end. For the second
time since I sold the Boat, I was glad.

A brand new big Cat washed up one the beach upside down. It was on
delivery from So. Africa. The 3 man crew is missing.
