I'm a little more than 30 miles north of Dauphin Island. (Well north of I-10, near Mobile Airport) The house (brick) withstood Frederic and others since, but the three huge oak trees surrounding my house weren't quite so large then ! No chance of flooding here, so I'm just praying for the trees to stay up and the roof to stay down. My son and his family were smart enough to be on their way to Montgomery this afternoon, and then Tennessee in the morning.

I'll try to keep y'all posted (and I'm sure rickNOTonaboat will as well !) tomorrow when things start getting ugly. I have about 4 hours of battery back up for the 'puter, but not sure how long the cable modem will be working though.

PLEASE keep the sight up guys -- I'm countin' on ya !!
