I am really glad this thread has been so kind compared to other threads. I was in one where people were just flaming people from Florida just because we live here. I personally have been very fortunate enough that my house has sustained no damge thus far. I live in Sanford and decided to go to Deland for Frances and stay with friends. Well, that was a mistake. They lost power saturday and then the shingles and tar paper came off the roof on sunday and we had to get on the roof during the storm to put up tarps. Then we went to a neighbors house and patched thiers. They are not expected to get power back until at best Tuesday. For the 4 days I was there, I was able to get used to cold showers and sleeping on the tile just to stay cool at night.
I wish everyone luck if Ivan continues on his path. We all need it. Thanks for the support from everybody else.....we will take what we can get.
Just a little thing I noticed- Charley #3 (alphabet) Frances #6, Ivan #9....lets just hope we dont go onto 12!
