Yay for your dad!
Hopefully he’s got friends with power so he can at least visit and take a hot shower! And eat hot food.

I, too, thank you for the update. Daughter’s wedding was scheduled for a venue in Isabela in Dec. Called off.
Any idea how many people are going into the country vs the thousands leaving?

I remember the old Riviera Club, from my Navy days. :)
Good grief, that was fifty years ago.

WOW!! This is great news, as it looks like Trump turned it all around!
Unless, of course, the initial reports were just FAKE NEWS.

I am so glad to hear Iggy is improvising, adapting, and overcoming!
I was wondering though, just searched for it and got nothing, where are the 16k people going? I know the PR community in Philly was hoping to receive people and help out.

Hey there, jpsb! Hoping you pulled through Harvey aftermath without too much stress. Was looking for you to check in. Hurricane Mama tries to keep up with the coastal dwellers.

Each day I Google PR latest recovery updates. The article below was written by a reporter who managed to get to the central PR town of Orocovis, and gives some sense of what is happening with aid to small towns in the interior. This link also has links to 3 other PR stories written in Oct. and several from late Sept. My son who lives with his family in the southern San Juan suburb of Guaynabo had texted early on that the family was OK. A few days ago he phoned my son in Baltimore that he now had city water. I had phoned the day before Maria hit and he said he had plenty of water, chlorox, and lived in a strong cement building with storm shutters. He also said they had no significant interior damage except for water blowing under the front door. With electric and generator skills I imagine he is working very hard on the recovery.

This 16,000 includes citizens of island nations affected by Irma in early Sept. It also includes private jets flying the infirm and elderly to hospitals in the mainland US.
