Well, it seems my grandfather's town (Port Charlotte) was one of two towns that were hardest hit by the hurricane. I'm really worried because I haven't heard from him and neither has anyone else in my family. The other town was Punta Gorda, which is a mile from where my grandfather lives. About 15 people have been killed so far, and I praying my grandfather and his wife are safe. So if y'all could keep them in your prayers and keep your fingers crossed that they are OK, I would really appreciate it. Millions of people are without power and thousands of homes, especially mobile homes, were destroyed. In some of the pictures, it looks as if a tornado hit. One woman was quoted as saying downtown Punta Gorda is gone. That's about two miles from my grandfather's house.

Thanks, Julie. I'm a wreck. I talked to him yesterday before the storm hit and he didn't seem worried. At that time, it was supposed to hit farther north than it did, but I think the path took the town by surprise. I'm assuming the phones are out because I have tried calling from my cell phone all day and I just get a weird busy signal. I'm just hoping they are OK. In the stories I've read, they have said this hurricane was as bad as Andrew in '92...that is not good.

Kerri, I hope you hear from your grandfather soon. I will send some prayers to them, to you and all of our friends in the path of the storm.

Thanks, Sheila, it means a lot, really. I don't mean to whine or anything, but I'm just so nervous now. It wasn't supposed to hit his area originally and when I saw the towns mentioned in the stories, I just got sick to my stomach. I hope all of our Florida Creed friends are OK, too.

You're welcome, Kerri. and you're not whining. I would be the same way if it was my grandfather. I'm hoping all of our Creed friends are okay too.
