Tony: Hey folks, just thought I'd drop a line and let you know that my family and I made it through hurricane Michael safely. We lost a car and my mom lost her house, but the people are safe, and that's what matters.
We are still without power and there is a lot of damage and debris. We are starting to see signs of work crews in our area, but estimates for getting the power back on extend out until at least the 19th.
I hope everyone is well. We are making the best of it, kind of pretending it's a 2 week camping trip!

DAVID: Had no idea you were in the path of that devastation. Glad you all are safe. Life is what is important. Material items can be replaced. Keep us informed.

I didn’t know either, but thank you for telling us. The news bulletins were terrifying enough, but the images take on an extra personal dimension when you know that a friend has been affected. I hope you and the family will continue to cope, and life will soon get back to normal.
