Maybe they tried but their phones are also down. I was able to find her school's website emergency information and they provide an e-mail contact for students/parents to check in.
Now all flights from/to SJU, FLL and MIA are cancelled today. We won't be able to go today. That's the downside of being detached 950 miles from the mainland. I even have this neat little 2600W silent Yamaha generator that's sitting here unused. A friend of mine operates a tug and a barge between San Juan and Port Lauderdale, I think, but by the time he gets there they'll all have power back.
You know, it seems everybody has relatives in Florida and there's this cousin of hers who's a minister and works in Teen Challenge in Broward. We are hoping they hooked up. We got a hold of her knucklehead boyfriend but he was in Tampa at his parent's. He better be driving south right now.
Thanks for caring. Good luck with your aunt, too.
Praying all is well soon on your end.
