EVERYONE !!!!!! Please keep MS and any other of our brewing brothers and sisters in this hurricanes path in your prayers..
Just got off phone with MS , he was surveying damage and trying to help neighbor. I may try to get a rescue party together to help him out with his house. Keep everyone posted. If you are interested , either pm me or post here... He is going to call me back tonight.
PS. I know I've been gone awhile. Wife in and out of hospital again over the past 2 years... sux.. Have not brewed in 1.5 years. Sorry Pat...Do not know metric conversion for that...not on the form..

Hello @jhough... Sorry to hear your wife has been in the hospital! That’s a sad situation. Wondered where you had been.

How is MS...? Sounds like a bunch of folks up there are also in need of a bunch of prayers! The news video looks horrible, but sometimes certain areas are better than others.

Thanks @jhough for starting this thread.

@Scott The hardest hit areas were Mexico Beach, Tyndall Air Force Base, and Callaway. @jhough has relatives in Apalachicola also affected.

Our power is estimated to return on 24-OCT, based on our Gulf Power outage website.

We did not evacuate. I brought my mother over to my house.. My damage is water intrusion across the length of the house. Some areas in the house escaped the water which I am most grateful! All trees are down.

Insurance company indicated tarping my roof today, 15-OCT.

Panama City Beach has power, shopped there with Mom and filled up the car with gas yesterday.

Everyone is helping each other.

Thanks for the update! That would be very rough... I’m praying for you.

October 10th 2018 Hurricane Michael made landfall.

Today is the one year anniversary. I feel thankful and blessed. My contractor is projecting I'll be able to move back into my home by the end of the year. I've been renting a place in Panama City Beach since December 22nd.

Sheetrock went in this week. I have my flooring and paint picked out.

Raise your glass ya'll. Cheers!

Dammit man!!! I'll be up there soon hunting... Still not back in your house yet ?? That sux.. Gotta have a beer together this year !!. Tried a few of Oyster City Brewing there in Apalachicola beginning of this year .

Wow - I was just thinking about you both...! Well, a week or so ago, and wondering how you we’re doing. Glad to hear it’s coming to a close, but I expected you to be back home many months ago. Thanks for posting and letting us know.

This is an interesting article worth reading. It reminded me that two of our instructors at the college were killed indirectly from this storm.

Lovely to hear from you Richard (and Joe).

Although I have been a slack communicator over the last year, you've definitely been in my thoughts. It was great to read that you are making good progress and sobering to hear of the instructors.

Take care fella and brew soon ,
Pat

Good to hear from ya Pat!
