    My Family Hit Hard By Ivan

    Just found out yesterday that my Dad's walk-in clinic is totally underwater. His clinic was on Perdido Drive right across from the ocean on Orange Beach.

    He evacutated up to the north of Alabama to get away from the storm and everyone is fine. But also his house on Ono Island might have been destroyed at this point... He is contacting the command center they are setting up to so that residents of Orange Beach can see if there homes are damaged or even standing.

    He also owns other property in the area and fears that those buildings have been seriously damaged...

    Luckily he is 100% insured but the deductibles are extrememly high so he might have to pay out up to 15K per property before they even start any work. Plus good luck finding a contractor as they will all be so busy the next few months it will be impossible to get anything done right away.

    Looks like Dad's going to be hitting me up for a loan, after all the years I have been borrowing from him ;)

    Anyways all that matters is that my family is safe, sure there will be a few tough months for them coming but they will be ok.

    Here is a pic of the road that they live on

      That tall structure on the left of that photo looks like a bomb hit it.

      Glad to hear that your family is safe. In the end, that's what counts. Buildings can be rebuilt.

      Spend you some brain.

          I sympathize with you Drinking Hard, My family lost their house in Grande Lagoon.... looks like a bomb went off. Not to mention I think my office was blown away too.

                              The thing that is funny is that my family is quite used to hurricanes at this point. They board up the house and clinic and just take off whenever there is a hurricane coming.

                              They never imagined this one would be as bad as it was.

                                                          Wow that really sucks for you guys, but good to see no one was harmed.

                                                          Just imagine what the familes who do not have any money must have to go through. THEY cannot afford 15k to start anything and they may very well be totally fucked if the gov does not offer up enough to get them back up and running.

                                                          Not going to be pretty for anyone in that area for a while.

From what I hear people in Grand Lagoon woke up with bodies in their yards. I took a shitload of pics and video until around 12pm as Ivan was making landfall. Scariest shit ever. Still no power at home and the bugs and heat are begining to get unbearable. To those in the damage areas reading this, take care of yourselves and your neighbors!

                                                                                                                  I do remember, however, hauling ass out of Florida right before Andrew hit. I think that was in '87.
