August 27, 20178 yr Shelly's cousin Hurricane Harvey is wreaking havoc over the Texas gulf coast. I just wanted to share that we have been in contact with Shel and Steve and both are ok. Steve moved inland and is going to try to get back home today to assess any damage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
August 27, 20178 yr Please let us know ASAP anything you hear from him with regards to this. I know it's not likely, but here's hoping his home was completely spared any damage.
August 27, 20178 yr Glad that Steve and Shelly are doing well. Isn't HemiSam from that area? Has anybody heard from him?
August 27, 20178 yr Ken's right. Sam is also in Houston. I'm sure we'll hear from him how his family is. Good to hear an update on Shelly and Steve!
August 27, 20178 yr Steve is fine but the news is bad. He had no computer right now and sketchy cell service but his words are better than mine: Update: Was able to get back to check status. My RV is torn up beyond repair. Total devastation around me. I'll have to decide my next move. Overwhelmed ATM but I'm OK and Suzy is OK. My Mom's motorhome is intact. Time for me to make some hard decisions. No insurance on my old motorhome, as it had no real monetary value. I'll check in again soon. It's like a nuke was dropped all around. Massive destruction. I hope Shelly is dry and safe, and I'm driving back to SF from LA now but will check in again soon.

Glad to hear that his mom's home is safe. If we hear any way we can help we'll post it, or if Al or Shel or others hear, let us know. We all want to help our brother.

August 28, 20178 yr Glad Steve and mom are OK, but sad to hear the home news. Indeed, please let us know what we can do to help.
August 28, 20178 yr I'm alive! Don't worry about me, I'm safe and dry and my dog Suzy is by my side. The rest is all solvable. Made it down to check damage. My RV is in pieces, but that's just stuff. I think my scooter is OK, and my wormdrive saw is OK. I'll need both as the destruction was massive. Many people far worse off than I. And lots of work ahead. I've had several offers from the best people on Earth (Head-Casers), to put me up and I love you guys! I'll take some time to decide my next move, but have options. I should qualify for a FEMA trailer, and may do that. I might decide that Texas doesn't want me around anymore, and try a new start. Too soon to know yet. Either way, my spirit is intact. A true Alaskan can never be beaten by Texas! What is most important to me are my Mom and my Suzy, so things are good. Suzy is a bit freaked but otherwise fine. As long as I have them and my HC family, I can make it through anything. I'm learning to use my cell phone for Head-Case, so bare with me.
August 28, 20178 yr Some of us aren't as confident about baring ourselves, TICE, but of course we are happy to bear with you as you and your phone enter the 21st century. Love you buddy!
August 28, 20178 yr Sorry Shelly, head case seems to lack an "Eclipse viewing glasses required" tag. Maybe I should spoiler tag it for all concerned.
August 28, 20178 yr I'm glad your mom and Suzy are okey Steve, If you need anything from here, just tell me.
