Hi Donald . . . we fared out well from Hurricane Irene, no damage, no mess, no loss of power, unlike many areas of Virginia and my city of Hampton.  But it was not about me, there were many people hurting by this storm.  Virginia is a very green state, literally, and as a result, there were many trees that fell on power lines all over the state.  Many were left without electricity.  We evacuated to Charlottesville in the mountains.  Even though Virginia was declared a disaster area (flooding and down power lines), we were fortunate in that the eye of the storm stayed well off-shore eliminating potential for surges and more flooding.  Do you know Honore Haydel?  He was a classmate and teammate (swimming) at SU, and lives in Baton Rouge.  Take care, the next time we are in Louisiana, I will look you up.

Hey Donald, should have contacted you sooner than now.  Are you connected with Southern U in any way?  Just curious, SU is my alma mater.  Take care.

Brother Donald,
I hope you and the rest of the "Crescent City" family are alright! I tried to call you on my cell phone during the storm, "Gustave." but only got a busy signal on a cell phone line. I thought that was strange. "Kokomo" and the rest of the family came over to Florida for a few days before heading back this past Friday morning. "Ike" was heading this way, but so far, just a little wind and rain. Have you made any lodging plans for Bonaire?

It's September, if possible next week let talk and put the archaeology scholarship back together ,when's a good date for you. Ken

Greetings Donald. August seems to be a very busy month for eveyone, can we start seriously working on the Archelogy scholarship in Key West in September ,so we can present it at the Summit in November. Looking at the cost of the scholarship the most espensive cost will be housing .I am working on that right now. I have several friends in Key West,and we are checking on housing.
