Hope all our Kolb folks in the area of Ike are ok.
As of this morning, I have not heard from any of my Kolb friends from that
area.
Weather at hauck's holler is beautiful. Based on it, one would never
suspect what is happening on the Gulf coast.
Don't know how this storm will affect weather between Thursday and Sunday.
Hopefully, we will be blessed with good flying weather and have a successful
Kolb Homecoming.
Whether you fly, drive, or walk, everyone make an extra effort to attend.
The folks at TNK go to great length to make all of us Kolbers feel at home,
comfortable, and well fed.
The 2001 Kolb Homecoming was canceled. However, some of us felt so strongly
about attending we decided to fly to TNK anyway. I can not remember who
showed up for that Homecoming. We had a good time despite the troubled
times.
Take care,
john h

The eye of Ike passed about 45 miles to my east... winds are in the 75mph range, and there's lots of hard rain, lots of debris flying through the air... power is out in my area, and reports say 2 million people in the Houston/Galveston area are without power.
So far, though, no major issues.

Glad you are ok.
Still waiting to hear from Gary Haley NW of Houston.
We got some more Kolb folks down that way also.

Gary lives about 15 miles due east of me which would, of course, put him 30 miles from path of the eye. Not too many trees in his aviation subdivision, so he's probably okay, but I'd bet his power is out.... almost everyone in Houston has no power.

I just finished talking to him..... he lost part of a fence, and of course no power, but he's fine otherwise. He moved his plane from its regular place to a more secure hangar, and it turned out to be a good move.... the roof came off his original hangar.

Kolbers,
Here is a picture of what is left of my hanger at Alvin Airpark as a result of Hurricane Ike. Luckily I had moved my plane on Thursday to a more secure hanger that wasn't damaged.
We have no power and probably won't have for a while, but my home is in good shape. I haven't seen any news so I don't know what all damage has occured elsewhere, but I'm sure Galveston and anything along the bay is torn up.
I'm going to TNK on Friday, looking forward to some Kolb fellowship!

Jimmy,
Glad to hear you are good! Good move with the plane. I considered moving my plane to higher ground for Gustav. The hanger that I would have moved it to came out worse than the one you showed. A bonanza was totalled in that hanger.
Just lucky and a little blessed.
Wish I could join you at the TNK. Daughter is enroute to Utah right now to meet her mom. Home from Iraq. They will be home Tuesday.
Hope you get power back by the time you get back from KY. It took 9 days for us to get power.
Hope to meet up with you guys soon and visit.

Just checked on Gary H.
He and his Kolb (kolb related), house, hangar, and all are OK.
Even got power a little while ago.
