Anyway Phil hope you survive Ivan as well or better than the other two.

Wrapped my big screens with it in case the roof leaked or went. Not so much as a drop entered my shop, and our home was spared. many here are not as blessed.Thousands without power or water (or a roof)all across the state. bro' in law in Inverness (Citrus County) still no power, and being rural, last on the list.
