Hoadie,

I hope everyone is safe, North or South.

I have 2/3 of my family North of the line and more North of the Canadian line.

I wish it would just go out to sea.

I just heard from  friends on the West (Caribbean) Coast of FL. Some wind & rain,but noting serious. It seems many have lost power, but the storm isn't really ashore so much of the real nasty stuff is out at sea. No idea about the East (Atlantic) side.

obviously missed something here , im genuinely concerned for all of my southern friends , please know it , i hope all of you are safe 

remember my ancestors fought for the south in arkansas but i have never thought of any of us as anything but americans - im good with the stars and bars as an american flag that deserves respect not the political BS it has been saddled with , its still alive in my home

Living on the west coast of Canada we don't get storms like these you are experiencing in the southern USA, so I can only imagine what it is like just seeing video clips and photos on the TV. Godspeed to all here and their families who are experiencing nature's wrath. Please be cautious, we love you all like brothers and sisters up here in Canada, many of us including myself have family ties and close friends in the USA.

I haven't any family overseas but regard you all as friends and sincerely hope the storms don't cause complete havoc and loss of life for any of you.

Guess some of the most historic cities are in Matthews sights now.
Looks like Charleston, S.C. is about to get a "blow job" next.

Not all of the historic sites can be re-built after one of these monsters. (And lives are never quite the same, after)

The plantation where we did North & South was severely damaged (I forget just which storm it was), but it never regained the old look it had after.

God-speed to all those in the line of fire.

I have lots of rain and some high winds.

So far lights still on, cable still works, and lots of beer.

Time to hit the garage, do some reloading,have a beer and a Cuban cigars or two.

I miss the days when it was one to one, or even a few pennies one way or the other.

Yes I am old.
