I heard from my brother this morning, he is in Sarasota. Still has cell phone service but no power. He say they expected buildings to fly by them. Did not happen. He said he doesn't know about his house yet.

They are not out of the woods yet down there, but thank God they ain't still stuck up a tree.

She knocked out power here in Moultrie around 10, I think. I got word from a neighbor that our homes had survived in Davie Fl. I have almost no battery now, have sat in closet with the birds since about 9am. Its clearing here, but I still got 37, 5 story pine trees around the house, lol. Will grill and eat with neighbor later and charge phone in car when things are calmed and settled a little more. All the power lines running TO my houses here, seems to still be there. This has not been fun!

Daughter & family ok. Tree limb missed the car, 2 sections of fence down, few shingles gone, & the paint on the hood of her car is wrinkled???
I"m guessing it's a second rate paint job to start with, rain soaked it lose and wind blew it into wrinkles. [emoji6]

Now TS irma is heading up near a friends in Georgia.

Has anyone heard from the T Net members in Key West?

I've never been more happy to see a 45 yo bottle of rectified turpentine oil, in all my life!
LOL!

On fb there has been some key westerners checking in, try and search there.....
Good luck and stay safe all.

OH! Check the shipwreck hunters sub-forum, too. They may be chiming in over there.
