As, Lady Fisher requested in her opening article "Bad Things Happen"; We survived Dennis OK. Fortunately by the time it hit us here in Meridian, MS (Hickory is only 17 miles west) it had lost a lot of it's strength and we suffered only a lot of rain and some wind. Our only problem is the water table is so high that we had water come in through the weep holes in the bricks. Our house is built on a slab. My wife is slowly gaining on it and I have devised a plan on how to keep it from happening again.

Now to get ready for Emily.

Let's hear from you folks down around the Florida and Alabama coast. Is every one OK?
