It has been over 7 years since Katrina took everything except the cloths on our back. We lost or home, 2 trucks, and everything else except our land. Even the bricks to our home were gone including the fireplace and chiminy. I do find some bricks occasionally when I try to plant a tree to replace the dozen we lost on our 2 acres. We went 7 months withoout electricity and it took about 9 months before we could move back on our property.

You were the winds beneath our wings as my wife Jo-Ann and I struggled to keep our heads above board. With the words of support along with the various types of help you sent us we could not have been where we are today. You helped us to the extent we were able to share the love and support with the few people that were comming back with us. You actually reached out to our entire community down here.

Although I have said it before I want to once again thank all the CTF group, my friends from P&WA, my fellow firefighters from both companys I have served in and others through out the state I have fought with, The comunity of Old Saybrook, and the many others in the state that came together with my family to keep us thinking positive and looking forward.

Carma came to us and I wish the carma back to you.

Thank you and God bless.

Fishing is not a matter of life or death. It's more important than that.

Hoop,

Happy to help. Wish I could afford to come down. Doing the kitchen and bathroom right now.

Chris, I'm willing to step up and add another person to that trip if you'll have me. If you can fit me in, count me in for sure!

BTW, Thanks for all you do to help us through the winter blues up here Capt Hoop. Your reports keep us going. I wasn't part of CTF back then, but if I was, I would have helped in any way I could! Lets hope it never happens again!

It is only when you see a mosquito landing on your testicles, that you realize that there is always a way to solve problems without using violence ...

A chance to help some of the most generous and helpful people you know?
Doesn't happen a lot, and was glad to.

I'm in. Let's charter a bus. wink2

Slow fishing is better than no fishing.
