muffinman Posted August 28, 2011 #1 Posted August 28, 2011 Hello, Everyone! I spoke with Jeff this morning and he asked me to post a Note on the Forum to let everyone know that he and Margaret and everyone else in the area are doing fine after the storm. They are without electricity, as the utility turned it off yesterday morning around 9 AM, but they do have a generator. They have no land line phone and no internet, hence the request for me to give you an update. BlackJack
SC89Venture Posted August 28, 2011 #3 Posted August 28, 2011 Uh-oh, after all these people with out power I wonder how many Irene babies were gonna have in May-June?????? :cool10::cool10::cool10:
FuzzyRSTD Posted August 28, 2011 #4 Posted August 28, 2011 Thanks, glad the storm was not as bad as predicted. The media has sure made a very large coo-doo over it all. It could have been a lot worse. Thank God it was not. Fuzzy
DragonRider Posted August 28, 2011 #5 Posted August 28, 2011 I tried calling this morning to see how they fared, but got voicemail on both phones, glad they are ok, knowing muffin isnt going to leave all his bikes behind unless they tie him up and cart him and mini out,,,,of course they dont know about mini's arsenal..........I sure wouldnt want to face off with her.....:starz:
Dokon Posted August 28, 2011 #6 Posted August 28, 2011 Thanks for the post, glad to hear they are alright.
Sling Posted August 28, 2011 #7 Posted August 28, 2011 Thanks for posting this info Terry. Glad Muffin man and Mini are okay...My Father lives on the coast in New Jersey, I Talked to him before the storm, he told me he wasn't going anywhere. The loss of communication sucks you just think the worst but hope for the best. it took me until 3:00pm today to get a hold of him.. It turned out to be all good where he is..
b2dad Posted August 28, 2011 #8 Posted August 28, 2011 Glad to hear they are ok. We didn't have any hurricane here and we still lost our internet today...about 6 hrs or so... Hang in there muffinman and mini...praying you get your power back soon. Patti and Don:fingers-crossed-emo
DragonRider Posted August 28, 2011 #9 Posted August 28, 2011 Just got off the phone with the Muffin, all is ok, still no power, about another hour or so he says, has generator power.
mini-muffin Posted August 29, 2011 #10 Posted August 29, 2011 Well we all got power back this morning at 5:30 am. Woo Hoo!! The phones are working and the internet finally. Oh Nate is here with his 1st gen to get a stator put in. He was eating when I got here, guess inhaler still works for a nickname. Margaret

Venturous Randy Posted August 29, 2011 #12 Posted August 29, 2011 Well we all got power back this morning at 5:30 am. Woo Hoo!! The phones are working and the internet finally. Margaret Has anyone talked to Authur? And thanks for the updates. RandyA
mm482 Posted August 29, 2011 #13 Posted August 29, 2011 I am sure thankful we didn't get the 100+ MPH winds they had predicted. We got heavy rains and 30 to 70 mph winds for what seemed like for ever. It started early Sat. and lasted ALL DAY. There were more trees and power lines down than I can ever remember from pass hurricanes. We lost elt power Saturday morning about 7:00 and just got it back at 10:00 AM today, and we are some of the lucky ones. Earl PS I sure missed being able to get on the site.
mini-muffin Posted August 29, 2011 #14 Posted August 29, 2011 Has anyone talked to Authur? And thanks for the updates. RandyA Didn't talk to him today, he had to work yesterday. We were waiting on the same sub station to get started. So his power should have come on when ours did. Was a pain we had no downed lines and still didn't get power till today. Had to wait on another electric company before ours could turn us back on. Actually I was wondering how the folks up north are. Seems like lots of water damage due to flooding up there. Margaret
BEER30 Posted August 29, 2011 #15 Posted August 29, 2011 We finaly got power back on at the shop. Progress Energy sent out robo calls stating no electric till Thursday 12:45. Guess we got lucky as power was restored 3 days ahead of schedule. Still no internet/cable at home. Glad to see everyone's OK. BEER30
ADC Posted August 29, 2011 #16 Posted August 29, 2011 I'm still here,power is back on but the internet is down .I'm at Mcdonalds catching up on email ect... Cable internet stinks here lately,been down alot this summer time to switch to dsl. Arthur
