Just wanted to let everyone know that we are ok here in East Texas. Still have no electricity and they say it may be up to a month before it is restored.

Good to here you are alright ,stay safe

Glad to hear that, hope you get some electric sooner than that. I know some lineman from NJwent downto MSto helpto straighten that mess out. Good luck.

Good to hear your all doing ok, keep on keepin on !

I am happy to hear that. How are you postin'? Generator? If so, then my hat is off to you and your determination to visit the forums.

Glad you didn't get washed away, Gonzo! Hang tough, like a Texas boy!

Glad to hear that everyone is ok.

hey Gonzo, i'm glad to hear that y'all are okay...did your house suffer any damages?..and a month is a long time without power...atleast you won't have to pay the bill and keep buyin' fuel for the generator at the same...well glad to hear you are okay...oh hey how'd your wife's family make out...

Hi everyone this is Gonzo's wife, we just got word today that the electric company may restore our services as early as today!! What a relief to us!! We are able to post to you from my job. I work in the city, so they have had electricity for a while now. It is just us country folks that have to really suffer. lol Well, unfortunately, my family did not fair well in this storm. We got word 2 nights ago that they lost everything. They are on their way to Tyler, TX right now to more relatives house, where they will have electricity and a little more room to move around. Things were getting a little testy at our house due to the heat and tight living quarters...doesn't help to have 2East Texas Rednecks and4 seasoned coonasses in the mix either. lol (No offense to any fellow coonasses out there..i'mborderline one myself..lol)

Thank you all for your concern, and Gonzo should be back very soon...

Foregive me, but what is a seasoned coonass?
