WE normally get 61" of rain all year in West Palm Beach. We got 30" in the month of Sept this year. It is a mess. Traffic light missing everywere. Telephone polls snapped off and lieing on the ground. Roofs, signs and sheds blown everywere. BUT we are getting our lives back to normal slowly. We are cleaning up and rebuilding. It will probably be 12 to 18 months before this are the we they used to be. All we can do is plug along and take it one day at a time. My roof was destroyed from Frances. Jeanne didn't do as much damage as Frances, at least to my house. Other people North of me weren't as lucky as I was. Both storms made landfall in the same spot. About 50 miles North of were I live. I consider myself blessed compared to a lot of other people. We still have a lot of poeople without power. Luckily I have a BIG generator that can power my whole house. I have power now so don't need it at the moment. I wish everyone a speedy recovery from their losses. After I fix up my house it will be for sale. I am headed your way MXjunkie. To PA.

I live at Coconut & Northlake. If you didn't see what I saw you don't get out much or travel too far from home.
