For what it's worth, I spoke with Jeff Phillips the night before the hurricane and he was gathering a few things and planning to shelter at Keesler AF Base (he's an officer). Keesler's homepage says the base made it, so I *assume* he's ok, but do not know for sure. I'll post if I hear from him. More details: http://www.keesler.af.mil/ Thanks again for all these updates. ~kristin

Thank you SO much for these updates. There are names I am releaved to see, unfortunately some are listed as "homeless" - but at least they are safe. My thoughts and prayers are with them all.

You know it, Mary! I wasn't able to go to the ceremony itself (we discussed closing manifest entirely, after all we WERE on a weather hold, but no dice) - so I sent my camera out w/ the most responsible skydiver I could find (Andy from Titusville - thank you for not sending back my camera full of pictures of women's boobs, asses, etc.). What a kick ass wedding, I can't wait to see the missing video. :)

Ooohh... silly RevJim. Ask and ye shall receive - photographic evidence. http://www.flickr.com/photos/kfarwell/tags/hellfish/ (They are listed last to first, so feel free to start at the last page and work your way back. Although, if you start at page 1, you get to see how bad it got and then backwards to how we got there.) ~kristin (LaManifesta, WFFC)
