[Rhodes22-list] Hurricane Dolly_Jim White

[Jim White]

Hi Folks
 
We made it OK......still without power, but hopefully restored sOon. Much carnage in the Laguna Madre area of South Texas, I'll post some photos soon if ya'll are interested. 
 
Le Menagerie rhode it out (pun intended) on a trailer in our driveway with no damage as did our bigger boats, Olivia (Westerly Centaur) and El Caribe (Pearson 35), both on moorings.....
 
Dolly was a marginal cat 3 (despite media reports) with some gusts on South Padre Island of 148 mph....
 
We are cleaning up now and hanging together as a community. Thank you all for your prayers and concerns.
 
The power of the wind is awesome....it carries us peacefully to places we dream of, but it also sometimes lets us know who's REALLY the boss.
 
Cheers,
