Has anyone else had a difficult time accessing the Escapees' forum for the past few days? I received a message to set up a new password on Friday but haven't been able to access the forum since. www.escapees.com doesn't seem to work either. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

I was on the site just before Ike hit and there was a post to expect the site to be down for "an undetermined amount of time".
We had reservations in West Houston and the park called and asked us to cancel because there were so many people without homes they needed the space we had reserved. There are some people here in the park from Beaumont that said they have been told they may have to wait five weeks or longer to go home.

On another web site, someone wrote in and said that they had heard that Livingston got hit pretty hard. This person said that there were trees down, and some damage to buildings, so I would imagine it will be awhile before they are up and running again.
Our main hope is that no one was hurt, and that the damage wasn't too bad.

Escapees uses their own computers to work as servers for their website and forum now so they will be offline as long as they do not have their high speed internet connection and electric power. When the website comes back up you know both the phone lines and electric power are working at Rainbow's End.
We have many friends there and wish them all the luck and hope no one was hurt or worse.
