    We just got power back where I live. it's been out since 5am. just a block back towards Ashley River, and it's flooded knee deep.

    we're about 12 feet above that... the ground is crazy saturated so the flooding was pretty bad around here.

    the wind... insane.

    Trees fell near the place, one car here is totaled.

    Charley didn't even do any of this. Gaston picked up right before landfall and almost was categorized as a Category 1 hurricane.

    I heard the islands, Sullivan, Isle of Palms and slightly north along the coast - Georgetown especially - got it pretty bad. How's Daniel Island man?

    wow - i'm at work this morning, but only really to type this and check in with everyone at the baud. we live in mount pleasant, and the 5-mile radius around us was the hardest hit...you wouldn't have believed the wind and rain. it actaully looked like a blizzard. and the sounds of our house being torn apart - not fun at all. we still don't have power 24 hours later. one whole side of our house (both stories) is soaking wet...water dripping from the ceiling, carpet squishy....uggg! you wouldn't believe the tree damage in our neigborhood - it looks like a giant came and just topped them all off. some of these trees made it through hugo! the storm was cool - i just wish i wasn't going to have to go thur this rebuilding process...it doesn't sound fun. anyway, i'm off to find ice! i'll post some pics later...
