[Jacob-list] flooding

[Linda]

Glad to hear that everyone survived, albeit abit damply!  

Having spent more than a few hurricanes and tropical storms in the subtropics, I can certainly agree that they are NOT 
cool and refreshing. 

We are in an area that was supposedly wasn't to get much rain, but we did get almost 9".  Very muddy out there, but 
thankfully the winds stayed calm.

Hope everyone gets dried out before the next one gets here!
