is as close to an “official” update on the members of the Barony as
we have right now. Having spoken with T.E., the Senechal, and Simonn
& Tessa, here is how things look: There are at least 20 adult members
accounted for. That still leaves too many we haven’t heard from,
yet. We have also heard of one house that is a total loss (Kandace), but
we have no injuries to report. Tessa asked me to relay that she and
Simonn are fine. They have power, but their computers are down (water
damage), so they cannot tell you for themselves, yet. (She also asked me
to mention that Zane will be doing his Thesis defense on Oct. 13, and prayers,
good wishes, and crossed fingers are all welcome!) Richard and Debbie got
quite a bit of water damage in the house, but it remains to be seen just how
extensive or severe. Cindi & Darren just got power back, and
are heading home. Others are “between there and here.”

are over half of the adults we have not heard from yet. If you are
reading this, please update the Barony on your status. If you have
information about someone – RELIABLE information – please update
the Barony. For instance, anyone who has any information about Armuin,
should post immediately, please. If you need help, say so. If you
can give help, say so – and tell what kind of help you can give. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
