The sic part is that it's but a fraction of my gun collection!
Well, came through Rita ok, rough ride around daybreak (although
nothing compared to what lake charles got I see). All the cars got
was a good speckeling of leaves and pine straw on them, my safe spot
turned out to be free from downed trees like I had figured. Some near
misses with my dad's real estate office (inches to be presise) and
have some fence damage and shingle damage. put the satelite and
router on a dc inverter from the dak to check email and news and
figured I'd let everyone know I'm fine. Got some good pics and
possible decent videos to upload later whenever power comes back up
and I can maintain an internet connection for an extended period. For
now, there is no fuel anywhere, no lights but we do have our water
service running on generator.
