Yes the Jon lives! My wife and I are in Texarkana Arkansas and its beautiful here!! After a week at my brothers home in Hemphill with no electricity we had to leave! My brother is a controll freak, He took all the MRE's and bottled water that FEMA was supplying to us and locked thim in his room and told everyone (even the kids staying there) that he was the only one who could have them and we were all to eat sandwiches. We then headed north to where were at now and thank "GOD" for FEMA and Hampton Inn hotels. They have put us up here and are not charging us anything to stay and even providing us with breakfast in the mornings. I can say one thing about the people here in this part of Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas... They are awesome! I only had 2 pairs of shorts and 2 shirts after leaving everything else at home (didnt really think the hurricane would hit PA). I packed lite because I thought we'd only be away for 2 or 3 days at most. Another bonus is the clothing store here in Arkansas took 50% off everything we bought! The people here are so compassionate and giving it is unlike anything I've ever seen! For those of you who dont believe in God he is alive and well and working in the hearts of the people here! I cant praise him enough for seeing us through and keeping us safe! My car was hit by a falling tree while at my brothers and it did a lot of damage to the front right side but God came through again when my mom contacted me and informed me that my late step father had left me his Ford Ranger extended cab truck when he passed away a few monthes back! I have to give God praise and all the glory and credit for taking care of us! I just wanted to let you all know that were ok and doing well. I am looking for work here and if I find a good job we'll be staying! Hope to hear from all of you soon and hope that all of you are ok! If any of you would like to email me feel free to!! My email is dalosiman@msn.com
God Bless you all and take care!
