    My power and hence, internet came back just after 8 tonite. I'm thankful and blessed that so many called and texted to check on us through the past couple of days. We came through without any damage and just lack of power and the inconvenience that it brings. Neighbor 3 doors down is on a separate grid and is still without. Has a small generator running a fridge and some lights but too small for the water service. He had the wife, Gdaughter and I for dinner last night, dogs on the grill, that was a good change for all of us and the next door neighbor and their 3 children. Dad is National Guard and not home yet, serving in Jax area. This was a bad storm but not near as good as it could have been. It's been a reminder for me how much we depend on one another in rough times. Camping skills and just being there to talk to for some, and the offers from those with to those who had not cut way down on the stress for everyone. We officially dodged this bullet, and I've given thanks for that. Thanks for paying attention everyone, nice to know folks care.......Skeet.

    Hey Tim you must be on the same power grid as me ours came back on at 8pm too. Going to take a recon trip to the river next Saturday to see if any new trees got blown into the river from the storm. Hopefully the river won't stay high too long from the storm. High water = poor fishing for my area.
    Anyone heard from phantom??

    I'm feeling a recon trip today but I'm thinking there will be a lot of trash flowing. Cabin fever is eating me up! I'm wondering what Crescent would be like?

    We left Vero Beach and went N W for 2 nights. Came back east across rt 60 and saw no damage at all till almost to rt 1.
    We live between rt 1 and the river, and other than yard cleanup see little damage in this area. We didn't even lose power at our house.
    If it isn't too hot I'm headin for Blue Cypress this week.
