<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>What hurricane? It was only a tropical storm! All
wire antennae are still up. 2 M antennais still up as are all the verticals.
Took the 6M antenna down Saturday. Generator has been running since Sunday
morning. The apple tree in the back yard has about a 20 degree tilt, but appears
to be firmly planted. Driveway washed out quite a bit, but the hay bales kept it
from a total escape. A little water in the garage and a tiny amount in the
basement, not even enough to trigger a moisture detector! We were fortunate that
it was only a tropical storm. Wind velocity really drives up the force exerted
on stuff. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>However many have suffered greatly as a result of
this storm. I count myself as one of the lucky ones.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>All okay here Vinnie, tilted the three towers over pre-storm, so no
damage...took less that 15 minutes. Pushed them back up yesterday.</DIV>
<DIV>Water in the basement has been pumped, but moisture lingers. Folks
aren't so lucky...wires still ripped from the house. They were just here
for showers a few hours ago.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Glad you're okay.</DIV>
