Sorry I've been off the grid but we lost power about 7 Monday and got itv back about 11 last night. Its been a wild ride. The rain was bad .we totally underestimated it. Almost the whole district was without power. But except for for no power and a few downed trees we are fine. Lot of clean up to do but main thing is we are OK. Thanks dir all your prayers. Donnie

So glad that Irma wasn't too terribly awful to you. Not sure how you managed without power that long - 5 minutes without AC and I'm fading fast. Blessings as you begin your clean yp

Thank you all. Glad that's over. It was. Much worse than any body this far out could expect. I was to late to buy a generator for my freezers but I'm buying one for next time. I went sat to buy one and all of Toccoa had sold out of everything last Tuesday. So it was a good weeks for retailers. Haha . god bless you all.

Glad you are ok. The tv news shows terrible destruction throughout Florida. I don't think I could take the heat and humidity. πŸ˜€β€οΈ

We were blessed that the rain brought cooler temps for a couple of days til we got power back. My heart goes out to all those people in Florida SC and coastal GA who lost everything.

Doubled51 so glad to hear you are doing OK. It must be miserable with no power! Take care of yourself and check back in when you can.
