Just a quick note before Purdue's game tonight.
All our family members are safe and even have electricity. My niece in Raleigh lost electricity for awhile but it's back. Joe reports his cable is out.
My brother, Joe reports: Just took a driving tour of New Bern. I know the national media showed a lot of devastation but people are already out and cleaning up. Of course there are families that got hit very hard but for the majority of the county I predict things will be back to normal in a matter of weeks. My family was lucky and we only need about a day of yard clean up. My neighbor's were not so lucky and they will take longer to get back to normal. Things in general are not too bad and the good folks of Craven county will be ok.
And just now, a report on my dad's place. "Water got in dad's garage and his car was in the driveway and it got flooded. His air conditioner is under the house, so that may be damaged."
My dad's house sits on at least a 3 foot if not 4 foot crawl space, so hopefully the interior is ok.
Given that, I'd guess that the water at my dad's was 8 to 10 feet higher than it's ever been. He's been there 30 years.
Everyone is safe and everything else can be fixed.
Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers.
Go Boilers!
