Stan, Craig and Kathy told me you were trapped there on St John’s and it must have been very frightening. The pictures from there on the news yesterday were unbelievable. I am so glad you and Ari made it home safely. Thank you for the link. I just sent a donation. Jerald

Hello All,
I have just returned from the tempest that was Irma. Eri Weinstein and I weathered Irma on St. John hunkered down in a laundry room in the dark for about eight hours. I was one of the fortunate, blessed, comfortable ones with a roof still over my head when the songs of the tree frog’s signaled the end of the storm. Their song’s belied the devastation. Thanks to the efforts of Kathy Blackbird and Craig Hurwitz, we were was finally able to leave St John by fishing boat to St. Croix after about a week. After experiencing and witnessing the devastation, I am compelled to help as much as I can from the safety of Austin, until I can get back to the Island.
I am writing to ask for donations for those still left on the Island. If any of you have any money left to be donated after all of the donations I am sure you have given to Harvey’s victims, please make your donations the St John Community Foundation donate http://www.thestjohnfoundation.org/donate http://www.thestjohnfoundation.org/donate http://www.thestjohnfoundation.org/donate They have been working with St. John for years. Even a small amount will help someone to water, food, or bedding.
Thank you. Love and Hugs.
