My dad called me this afternoon cause he was worried about us after what he saw on the news on Gaston (Add to that: my mom's visiting family in FL till Sept 7th. He always goes a little nuts when Mom's gone *L*)
It's understandable he would be concerned - the news about Gaston last night in Virginia was pretty intense. You would be amazed at how many inquiries I've gotten about it today from folks that don't understand the geopgraphy of where in VA I live.
