Holy Sheet...
We're still here. Contact with "the outside world" may still be spotty - landlines have been intermittent, Nextel is either overloaded or "no service," and still no cable (TV or internet, at least here at the house). We lost power at approximately 2200 Wednesday night, and it came back on 22 hours later (absolutely incredible, considering that after Opal in '95 we didn't get power back for three days). I'll blog more about the Hurricane Ivan thrill ride we were on Wednesday night and Thursday morning, and about what I've seen so far in the aftermath, but now I'm gonna head back over to Shalimar and see what help I can provide there.
