Has anyone heard from Greg recently?

He seems to be missing in action.

He checked in just after Irma left his area. No serious damage to his
place but no power. Was running on a generator.

Yes, that was the last I heard also. There have been some reports on
television of flooding near his area caused by drainage issues. Don't
know if he's impacted or not. His creek/river is basically tidal so
normally drainage would not be an issue. Maybe he doesn't have an
alternative internet connection.

We lost power again about 8PM, huge bang, apparently a feeder cable or
transformer shorting out, and then the neighborhood went dark again.
The diesel gen on the boat is getting a real workout.


Half of my neighborhood is still out as of yesterday. Some with
RVs have them backed into their driveways feeding power to their
houses. I imagine they are sleeping in their coaches.
