Well, military leaves in the area may have been cancelled. I'm on leave now. My grandmother died (not unexpectedly) and I went home for the funeral. That's why I haven't been on the list in the last few days. For those who didn't know, I moved my family from Gulfport back in June. they are safe up in Dover, Delaware. I drove down to SC (father's house) just in time for gas to go sky high. It's coming down slightly, so the trip back home won't be much more $$ than expected. We still has close friends in Gulfport, but they were all far enough away from the coast that they are safe -- just out of electricity and some other services for a while.
