You are welcome, of course. I have been fortunate in friends and family down there. As far as I know, everyone is okay. I am still waiting to hear about my step-father in Kenner however. But, he's former Navy and I suspect he got out of there. Very efficient man.
Former Navy man? Yep, efficient and independent. Likely unable to call you, because even from here, it's DIFFICULT to make and receive calls. Takes several attempts, on both landlines and cells.
