Sup buddy .. Check in and let us know your wheels, .. Um, I mean you're ok ?

Bennett68C10 · 11-01-2012, 10:42 AM

Thanks guys we are ok. I have had no power or heat since Monday and supposedly arent getting it back for a week or two. No flooding at my house since I don't live right on the water. I have no cell service at my house. Had to go an hour away just to get some service. Spent yesterday cleaning out my parents house as they live on the water and had 2 foot of water and mud in their house so it was a mess. They got really lucky by not having any structural damage but we are in a major cleanup. I will post some pics when I get power back. My truck will be on hold for a couple of weeks until we get my parents house back in order. I'm sure you guys have seen the news, this was a nasty storm that devastated alot of people. We are very fortunate that all we have is a cleanup to do.

As long as everyone is safe going to take a long time for that area to come back. The Sea Ray site I am on posted pix of the damage to the boats and Marinas in the area it is devastating to see.

Glad to here you all are okay. Hope things get back to somewhat normal soon.

**CC69Rat** · 11-01-2012, 12:05 PM

Yeah it's pretty crazy when you see 30 to 40 foot boats just sitting in the middle of major highways after the storm.

It's all good Chad I know you were just joking. You had me laughing when I read your post and honestly we need a little bit of humor right now.

We had some good news tonight when we got home from my wife's grandparents house, we have power. I want to give my sincere thanks to the men and women at the power company's that are working their butts off to get the power restored. We were told it was going to take 7-14 days and we have it back on in 4.

Thanks guys, looks like it will be a while before my parents get there power turned back on. Because of all the fires and explosions they are having up and down the coast, the power and gas companies have to come in and inspect everyhouse in their neighborhood to determine if it's safe to turn the power on.
