Spoke with houmala earlier and she and her family are doing fine.

Cool. Thanks for letting us know, Bre!

Reached lsu2001's voice mail. Doesn't mean much, but at least he has cell service.

Was able to leave a message on LAwxgal's voice mail also.

Have not reached Sunny (although she's been online early today, but said she didn't have a cell signal), MSCoast, MS GulfCoast, TimNms, and baygirl_1.

I need to look up the area codes for the other areas hit because some people who sent in their contact information did not include where they live and their screen names don't help. But it's only a handful.

So, as far as our emergency contact list goes, those are the only ones we can try to reach.

IF ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE HAS NUMBERS FOR OTHER MEMBERS AND YOU CAN TRY TO REACH THEM, PLEASE LET US KNOW. We are all very concerned.

Thanks.

Have we heard from Lindaloo?

GalvestonDuck · #46 Postby **GalvestonDuck** » Mon Aug 29, 2005 7:55 pm

No. Getting a couple of rings and then back to the recording.

Honestly, I think it will be a matter of patience and prayer while waiting on the cellular companies to get things back in gear so that they will have signals.

That is fine. I am just concerned about all the folks.

Sad situation. I am hopeful that it is a communication problem lines are down and lines that are up are overwhelmed.. I am praying that we hear from all our friends soon

Baygirl_1 -- safe and heading home (Mobile) probably tomorrow. Sustained chimney loss and hole in roof.

lsu2001 - just checked in here.

George just called back and said he spoke to Linda before the second landfall. She reported that conditions were getting worse. No calls since then. He's also concerned about MSCoast (Kami) who is a nurse and was probably unable to evacuate.

Thanks for the update shawn.

Glad to here people are safe and checking in. I'm worried most about Mscoast and Lindaloo -- from the pics I see of the Mississippi coast, I don't know if they have much to go back to.

I didn't talk to bluefrog myself but Dr. Wiggins whom I work for had a meeting with her this morning about some condos he owns. So she is fine. Still working on trying to get MScoast and Ixolib.

someone PM me what my winds were& if was possible that a tornado came in area?though never repotrted on tv/radio.I'm 8 miles W of woodville airport on 190 then 10 miles back in woods.I DO know was still a strong CAT 1 from reports on 105.1
