Hurricane Ike
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 :(" title="" border="0"/> |

Hurricane Ike
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.
