My daughter and son-in-law stationed at Eglin AFB evacuated down here to Orlando and are worried about their base house there. They don't know when they will be allowed to return.

My parents, grandmother and aunt who live in Bluewater Bay (Niceville - outside of Destin) stayed put and are safe and sound. Lots of trees down and roof damage to my parents' house and to many in their development. They actually had their power restored this afternoon so they are real happy about that. I'm going to buy them a chainsaw and send it back up with my daughter and son-in-law.

I have relatives up in Birmingham who lost their power and have been told it will be the 20th before it will be restored. A cousin in Auburn has been told she probably won't get her power back on until beginning of October.

I'm just thankful that everyone is safe. What a brutal month we've all had.

Oops, meant to say parents had their power restored yesterday afternoon.
