Ike - Day 5

Most kids are back in school.

Something I forgot to mention. On day 1 while the power was out on a place I was visiting the cable company rolled in with a generator. They kept it going night and day until the power was restored there on Day 3. What was the generator for? To keep the cable phone service up so that 911 could be used. 1 point for keeping things together. Minus 10 points for "paying someone for sitting on top of a generator for three days" being your disaster plan to ensure 911 service.

Again we have to remember that our experience is like having an 18 wheeler blow by and knock your hat off where what happened where the real Ike actually hit is like being hit by said 18 wheeler.
