[CAUT] Re: Katrina-- sorry

[wimblees@aol.com]

We are fine.  No damage to the house. Lots of leaves and small branches 
in the yard. Lost power for 26 hours from Monday night to Tuesday. Also 
lost the phone for a couple of hours on Tuesday. Lots of trees down in 
the T'cloosa area, but the power company is great. No Cable yet, but 
that's a minor inconvenience. School was canceled Monday afternoon and 
Tuesday.

Any word from Lonnie Young at Southern Mississippi in Hattisburg? What 
about Charlotte Eschman?

My prayers to everyone down in New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf 
Coast area.
