Hi all,
Just a quick check in.
We rented a house in SE Salem about 5 miles from our smoking
crater :? It's a nice place with a good fenced yard for the dog but
a tad empty at the present. It's been a long & depressing week sorting through rubble of what's left
and I think we'll be happy when were finished and don't have to go look at it every day.
I found some things in the back end of the house so it's not a total loss. You do get a bit down when most
of your stuff is either in a drop box in your driveway or piled rumble in the back yard. But, things are getting
better and all of you here on the forum are helping in that.
I feel very fortunate to have such a good bunch of friends and that means ALL of you. The big decision now is
whether of rebuild or call in Randy and his F-15E to finish of what left :shock: We'll make that decision in a couple
weeks.
My wife and I what to talk ALL of you again for your support! It's really made a big difference. You guys are the best!!
Until next time..............
Jack signing off.

Jack, do you need stuff? Well, heck, I can ship you allllll kinds of "stuff" out of my hangar. It would make your new place have that airplane feel. :lol:

Take care and hang in there. It'll get better I'm sure. If you need anything, you know where to find us. :D

Jack,

Glad to here that things seem to be progressing fairly well for you and the family. I know it must be rough getting the sorting done.

I stopped by your old place the day after the fire to see if I could help you out with anything. Nobody was around the two times I came by and the neighbor I talked to was not sure where you were staying at that time. If there is anything I can help out with, my email--- tbohnst@yahoo.com

I live out South of town too------near the corner of Kuebler and Sunnyside Rd. Shoot me an email if you get me a chance sometime.

Your former fellow Chemeketa buddy, Ted B.
