Thanks for posting those pics Todd. We quickly forget the human suffering that continues long after the media moves on to other things and we move on to another storm. It's really a sad situation as the final toll will not be known for quite some time. Reports I have read said hundreds are missing. _________________ This post is for discussion purposes only.

You're welcome Lou. It's true, sometimes people forget and move on to next next storm. Felix will have a very long term effect. Photos still trickel in here and there. Very sad indeed. Photos are worth a thousand words to see the before, and then the aftermath. _________________ Todd
