Hurricane Rita

[Wayne]

This TeXSive is hunkered down at my girlfriends place in The Woodlands. We are expecting 75+ winds by Sat mornin'. The bike is in a garage. The windows in this appt. face west so we hope we will not get a window knocked out.

Just remember TeXSives. The rally is just two weeks away, no storms just great riding.

Hang in there guys.

God Bless

Ride (the storm out) Safe.

I'm glad to see that you made it safely. Things don't look so good for your home town area. The storm hit right near Sabine Pass with 100 mph winds. Lets just pray that everybody got out safely, and your property doesn't get hit too hard. Stay in touch.

so far i have no idea how my house and stuff did.... I know about the rest of my familys stuff but cannot find a contact that can get to mine right now..
got woke up this morning from a company needing lots of repairs but cannot get to our shop and dont even know the condition of it... not to mention i'm 800 miles away...lol
more details later as i find out... hope our Vidor XSive made out ok too even though he rides an XJ...lol

rode it out in northwest houston, expected to loose my tin shed and my patio cover, only lost my power for 24 hrs., my son lives northeast in Spring, he got some trees and fences down and no power still. My thoughts are with all of those that suffered much, much, more, hope xkxs1100 wasn't hit too hard.

Dragonrider, still waiting to hear what you did to the Dragon, hope you make Bandera, I still plan to.

I have a porch on my bike.... bad thing is its my porch....

half my front porch came down on my bike... there is some roof damage from the porch giving way.... shingles missing , limbs everywhere and my POS shed survived... which is good since i have a few grand in tools in it.. now just to figure out how and when to go home... need to start clean up and get bcak to work...

I don't have much left of my E model, but if I have anything you need, I'll be happy to let you have 'em.

[sksxs1100]

Thanks John.... I think it will still be a few before we get home and I can see the damage for my self. just trying to get things sorted out to figure when i'm coming home... need to run for now... ttyl

Hey, when you pass thru Dallas give me a call. Do you still have my number? If it is after 1 pm, I should be home. That is when I get out of therapy. Good luck with your trip home and I hope things at home aren't too bad. Tell Tonya I said hello.
