Harvey can go away now!

[DonBaldy]

We've had it here in SE Texas. The whole area is devastated. I've been in the Houston area all of my life and seen a ton of weather but this is by far the worst flooding. So far I'm one of the lucky, but there is still a long way to go. We are dry in out house. We have food and the power is still on and i've kept all of the phones, tablets, and vape batts charged.

I'm saddened by all of the loss around us. My home town south of Houston is completely flooded and everyone I know still living there has lost their home. It's been heartbreaking to watch unfold. It's hard wanting to get out with my canoe to help get people out but while I'm dry the roads to anywhere are flooded.

This is very overwhelming.

Having been seriously flooded out before, definitely feel for you and the people who have lost everything - even their lives

My mother lost everything with 5' of water in her apartment from the storm surge during hurricane Ike in 2005. It was heartbreaking to watch and again It is a helpless feeling to see so much loss and not be able to get out and help.

I sincerely understand, Don...hope the water subsides asap.

My wife has been showing me pictures of the flooding and damage. Prayers going out to all of those affected. I can't imagine what you guys are going through.

Like I said, So far we are some of the very fortunate ones. I woke up this morning to picture and video of a friend showing all the water in his home where he's been for almost 20 years. Face book posts from other friends about the flooding. So far some of the worst is south of Houston. I want to throw the canoe in the truck and take my son ( he's a boy scout almost Eagle) and and drive the 70 miles down to help rescue my old class mates but all roads down there are not passable. It sucks.

Sending major prayers to all in TX.

 

[Huckleberried]

I simply can't imagine. I've seen a lot on the news, but I know it's nothing like being there, or even nearby. Sending prayers.

I had it on the news with the 24hour coverage. It was so terrible. I'm 2 hours west of Houston. Closer to the eye of the storm so not nearly as much rain. We had 26", but nothing in the house. That was scary enough. I can imagine how those folks felt. Many prayers for everyone out there.

We were lucky here to not get any major damage or flooding. Prayers going out to all the victims of Harvey !!! Hope you get some relief soon.

 

[DonBaldy]

Personal update: We are still dry so far except for a little seepage by our back door, but this happens anytime we get any significant rain. It's easy to clean up with a carpet cleaner. The back of our neighborhood has sustained some flooding but it appears as if the creek has crested and is not rising more. We should stay dry but I'm not counting my chickens yet. We still have power and plenty of food. All of a egress roads out of the immediate area are flooded but we are safer here at home. We have put everything important up off the floor and hope that when I awake and put my feet on the floor that it's a dry floor.

I know this is unrelated to the forum somewhat, but I lost my SIGELLI and my SMOK 220w and all my juice along with stuff I just couldn't bring...anyone know of a cheap gas station vape I may be able to get so I don't end up buying cigs

 

[swooziemane]

Thanks Puff, means a lot.

What do you mean exactly?

 

[swooziemane]

I'd say I only got about 15-20 tops right now for a vape. I got so much bills and shit I got to pay which I can't work cause the damn hurricane, lol can barely get down the street to the gas station away from the shelter I gotta wear rain boots lol. But all this stress, I just want to hit my vape

 

[2WhiteWolves]

I'm pretty sure she means....don't get anything like this.

Get something else besides that.
One of these might tide you over till you are able to afford something better. The gas station should sale them. They are pretty cheap.

I live in Spring and I have a Sigelli 200w and baby beast tank then I'm not using. Send me a PM and I'll see what we can do. If I can get to my office tomorrow. My office is just outside of Downtown on I-45 north.

 

[twan013]

I don't have much vape gear at all but I'd be willing to donate a mod and tank if there was some way to get it out there. Only problem is that I don't have any juice to spare, and the tank needs a new coil head (baby beast). And then there's the issue of mailing it out. How do they handle the mail situation in times like this?

The ones that look like a cigarette don't work so well.
