DENNIS - Jerry Ranger in Milton

DEAR FOLKS
WE ARE GETTING READY TO BE HIT BY HURRICANE DENNIS; WE ARE GETTING EVERYTHING READY AND WILL BE RIDING THE STORM OUT AT HOME. MY MOTHER AND MOTHER IN LAW WILL BE AT THE HOUSE. MY YOUNGEST SON WILL BE STAYING AT MY MOTHER HOUSE WITH KURTIS (JOLENE SON). THE HOUSE'S ARE BOARDED UP AND GENERATORS ON STAND BY. THIS WILL BE THE FIRST TIME IN YEARS THAT I WILL NOT BE AT THE SHERIFF'S DEPT WITH THE INMATES. LAST YEAR THE ROOF CAME OFF AND FILL UP WITH WATER. THEY JUST PUT A NEW ROOF ON AND I HOPE IT HOLD FOR THEM.
WE WHERE LUCKY WITH IVAN, BUT THIS ONE I BELIEVE IS GOING TO DESTORY A LOT MORE. I WILL TRY TO LET YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH US AFTER THE STORM IF THERE IS ELECTRICITY AND PHONE LINES UP. LAST TIME IT TOOK WEEKS TO GET OUR POWER UP AND RUNNING AT THE HOUSE. I HAD ONE GENERATOR AND MY SISTER SEND ME ANOTHER ONE. THE OTHER PROBLEM WAS NO GAS TO RUN THEM AFTER COUPLE DAYS. WE HAD TO TRAVEL AWAY FROM THE AREA TO GET SOME GAS. THE GAS STATION HERE IS ALREADY OUT OF GAS. BUT I DID GET ABOUT 50 GALLONS STORE UP AND MOST OF THE VEHICLES ARE FULL OF GAS. WE HAVE A LOT OF MRE TO EAT FROM THE LAST HURRICANE AND SOME WATER. I WILL HAVE MY CELL PHONE ON AND I HOPE THE TOWERS ARE STILL UP AND RUNNING. THE NUMBER IS 850-293-1140. THIS WILL BE THE LAST E MAIL UNTIL THE STORM HAS PASSED. WISH US LUCK
JERRY AND REBECCA RANGER
