For our BE members in the path of the storm - hope you are all ok.

Yes, hopefully everyone is ok.
Isn't Pulaski in one of the Carolina's?

Yes, North Carolina.

Hope he and his family are safe.


Is Rich still in Florida?

Hmmm...not seen him around for awhile.

I am still Here! Not a lot of problem from Helene except a big branch fell in front yard and snagged the street light cable. Sorry I have been away so much. Trouble dealing with multiple minor issues!😀
and fwiw the aircon conked out before the storm and the fence needs replacing. $20k worth of fun!

Lost power for 3 days here in North East GA. Worst casualty was everything in our freezer.

Lesson learned. Investing in installing a transfer switch and a generator in the next couple of weeks.

Glad you guys are ok.

Still nothing from Pulaski though.

Good to hear you are both OK, apart from a little disruption.

I have been thinking about Mr P. I hope him and his family are OK. 🤞🏻

Praying for their health and safety. Thanking the heavens for watching over Rich and CS.

Good to hear that you're safe and well CS and RICH.
A friend of mine lived in Lake Lure, NC but moved during COVID. Thank goodness she did, Lake Lure has been wiped out.
Hope Pulaski is okay.

Mr P was last active 09/30, well after Helene, so I am sure he is just fine. Will be glad to hear from you though R!

The last post I have from Pulaski is 25 August...... have sent him a couple of private messages, but no response. Hope he is OK....

Im looking at the last activity line on his profile, which I believe is the last time he was actually activly logged in.

Hi everyone!

Well spotted, CS, I did indeed drop in last Sunday to let everyone know that we're all OK, but there was no storm/ hurricane thread, so I figured nobody cared.

We had some water (moving) flood our back yard on Friday morning, but it was pretty mild, and gone in a few hours. We've had worse most years since we moved here in 2002, often two or three times.

We lost the small top off a large tree (12"-15" trunk). Later I found it lying on the ground. .... It took about 20 minutes to cut up with a hand saw.

Power went out on Saturday night, which was long after the storm had passed. We weren't at home, and power was back by morning.

So, thank you everyone for asking, but thankfully we're all fine, with no harm to body, spirit, or property; well, apart from one tree.
