Hi Kris! Jaycee and Tristan are both grandkids. Hate to admit I'm old enough to be a grandmother, but they are sweethearts. So is your house all back together now? That must've been such a headache. I was in Jacksonville in September and there was a huge group of linemen in the hotels there, who were on their way back home after about three weeks of 18 hour days. Sounded like they really had their work cut out for them. And of course it wasn't over, since they had replacements coming in to take over for them. Still, looking at the indo-pacific, I guess you can still count your blessings, eh? Thanks for the note. It's always good to hear from you, and I hope you have a good 2005! --Mary

Wow. This is just beyond comprehension. And looks like New Orleans may get hit even worse pretty soon. What happens to all the debris from one of these storms? It looks like there would be enough to fill up a couple of landfills pretty darn quick!
