JussMatt, Thanks for the offer but as long as I can keep finding gas the generator will keep the frig and freezer running.

I'm glad you guys are alive and kicking. My thoughts are with you guys until things are back to normal, whenever that may be.

I just got an update from the power company. They are estimating it will be 10/05/08 to have my power back on.

Still feeding a generator at work - Hollister and 290

I'm tired of this - it's not fun anymore and I am missing good riding weather now that it has cooled off

I'm even getting irritable

For those who aren't living it.....

Click on the link below and then click on the "Galveston Damage" link under "SLIDESHOWS". That'll give you some idea w/ all the pics available.

Awesome pictures Matt, thanks for sharing.

I posted a message on the main forum. We are alive and well. The electricity is back on and we are feeling lucky that we didn't have any major damage to property or vehicles. Thank goodness for the generator. I allowed us to run both refrigerators and a small window unit in the game room. We were much more comfortable than after Rita. I hope everyone else came out ok.

Well I am a happy camper today. The power and water have been restored. Ahhhhhhhh a nice hot shower.LOL
It is amazing a simple thing like a hot shower will raise your spirits.
Paul I am glad you and your lovely wife are OK.

Good deal! I'm glad you and Marla are ok and have power & water back. Hopefully, we won't have to go through this again for a while.
Best Wishes,
Paul
