He was trying to buy a new generator as his failed. There was a semi truck with a big load in town and he was doing his best to buy one while talking to me. As others have reported, they had some property damage. He said it was a rough one this time. The winds in his area were reported too be 95 mph but he said that they were more like 110 mph. That darn Gustav did not even come close to defeating our friend or his sense of humor. I told him that it was 75 degrees with 15% humidity and a ten mph breeze here in Idaho. He laughed and said that I was not darn good! 
He is going to be just fine. He wants to thank all of the forum for out thoughts and prayers as well as offers of a place to stay. This group does pull together when it counts. He will be busy rebuilding for the next couple months so we won't see him on our doorstep for a while. I guess he is used to this kind of thing down there in the hurricane area. DC
