[South Florida DX Association] next week meeting cancel

[Richard M. Gillingham]

Good to hear from you Kappy.  I'm still running on generator power, taking 
cold showers.  8>(
But suffered very little damage over all.  Mostly branches out of my avocado 
tree, and a couple of strips of aluminum facia.  Purely cosmetic.

The street is full of power company people waiting for clearance from FPL to 
get to work finishing our power problems.  They set 8 new poles on my block. 
Waiting.

It'll all get sorted out.

Both my daughters now have power back.  So all is good.

Gil, W1RG
