we heard news from our nephew in virginia beach. His wife headed up here during it. I guess they lost some siding and had some water damage from water being forced in around the windows - but it didn't sound horrible. I don't think our friend with the place near the beach in North Carolina in Nags Head has heard any news about his place yet. My hubby is supposed to be going down there in a week to be playing golf! so - we don't know if they are going or not. At this point, I think they have their doubts. I've been wondering how everyone did - crisS ----- Original Message ----- From: nightsneak To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, September 22, 2003 2:45 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: - Hurricane? Thanks for asking BigMarc. I had no electric for 5 days. It is wonderful to be back in "power" again! I worked 48 hours of overtime this past week, so I wasn't home much to notice no electric. Loss of siding, but not much structure damage from the hurricane anyway, except for the tree damage. Lots of that in the cities around here. Most of the cities still have no or little electric, including traffic lights, so it is bumper cars around here. But, my bell never rang! I'll tell you what tho, mother nature is awesome. One day the hurricane, where I saw a dumpster, a 10'x12' intact shed, abandoned boats, and a huge motor float by, the next day calm water, bright sun, and 80 degrees. I was trying to sleep during the hurricane since I had to work that night, and my 4-story tall condo is built on sand since I am right on the coast. My bedroom is on the third floor, and my bed was a rockin' n' a rollin', and it wasn't like momma rocking you to sleep : ) We should be hearing from the local people on this list in the next few days as power is restored, little by little. Fortunately, there was no loss of life or injuries in this area. nightsneak ----- Original Message ----- From: "BIGMARC" <BIGMARC@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 20, 2003 6:12 AM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Hurricane? > nightsneak, > How are you now?
