Hi all,

Thanks Jake...but sorry for Linda and the kids! Let's hope that the power comes back on before nightfall

We might be right behind them with the lack of power, Jake...up here in the NYC area, I mean. You came all the way up here for a hurricane to threaten you?? Kind of ironic, isn't it! When will you be leaving our area?? Carole

Hi, Jake and Linda...you are back up and running as I just checked the webcams and they appear to be "on" but one hour behind EST? Carole

Darn...I meant one hour behind EDT! Duh. cb

Carole. What are you seeing gal. I see the cams are stuck on 16.58 and are not refreshing. Annie B.

It appears that the cams are back up and running...I just checked and had a 18:38 time stamp... UB

The power is back at our house/office on Bonaire, but apparently the power outage (or the repair thereof) has caused some problems with the Internet connection at our house - we're seeing 20-50% packet loss - enough that Linda cannot even access the Internet (and therefore neither can our WebCam server). She'll check with the phone company in the morning to see if they can clear up the problem. So, until then, WebCam images will get through sporadically (if at all), but at least now they are being captured (which wasn't happening when there was no power).

Jake. Thanks for keeping us informed. Annie B.

Jake, good luck with you travels

Good grief, Jake - perhaps you should arrange for a teleconference!

Hi gang,
|
By Carole Baker (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #2628) on Tuesday, September 16, 2003 - 6:50 pm: |
Thanks for hanging in there, Linda. We really do appreciate your hard work and dedication. Hope everything else at home is fine, too. Somehow "things" always happen when the "other half" is away from the post....at least at our place, it does! LOL. Hope Jake won't get too wet in DC, either, with Isabel moving up the line here on the EAst Coast. Thanks again, Linda. CArole

I'm actually at JFK airport outside NYC right now, decided to head to DC a bit earlier than originally scheduled... Let's see how I fare down there.

I'm not sure about a dive. Along with the blackouts, we've been having wind reversals coming from the southwest instead of east. The water has had whitecaps into the shallow blue water.

East side weather!!!

Linda, if you just went to the list of folks on the island now and asked somebody to come clean the lens I bet they'd be over pretty quickly. It's all in the testosterone.

Freddie was here early this morning dropping off some Chai tea but I didn't get a chance to talk to her. The chai was hanging off the gate handle when I took the kids to school.

Calm in front now!!! ??? :–)

Linda, I bet if you called Freddie and George, they would hi tail it over in a heartbeat:-)

Advertise Linda? Heck you could auction off a chance to clean the webcam. I'm sure any of the BTers would be happy to, and some even able to! Leave a message at Don's for them.

Hey, I did finally clean it yesterday. Certainly needed it!

Think of it as training approved field reps Jake.

By Cynde (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #8707) on Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 2:10 pm: |
Jake, me thinks the cams are down again...power outage??? Linda, you OK???
|
By Jake Richter (Moderator - Post #4536) on Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 4:44 pm: |
I'm temporarily back in DC to take care of some matters (just got here a few minutes ago). I just called Linda and she says it's been raining there all day. For some reason that's affecting our lease line access, which means that the Internet connection from the WebCam capture server to the rest of the world is non-functional. Hopefully it will clear up when it stops raining...

Hi Jake, knew you were on your way (and in DC)...thoughts are with you and your friends...thanks for the update, however, with the cams down I am actually getting housework done! LOL!

By Carole Baker (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #2646) on Sunday, September 21, 2003 - 5:05 pm: |
Me, too, Cynde! BiCoastal energies are kickin' in big time today! LOL. Of course some strong Kona coffee helped a "little bit", too! Carole
