I'm not sure if anyone has seen these. I was wondering if this was a member. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family and all of those down south. My girlfriend's friend took these.

My thoughts and prayers are with them as well...

I hope that the owner and his/her family and friend are ok, it sucks, it hurts to loose things like your pride and joy corvette or your home ect.. but they can all be replaced. People can't... Times like this we have to take a minute stop and count what we do have and start from there...

Any of our fellow corvette forum members doing anything to help the recovery efforts? Like Donations or Volunteering?

Yes. That is my home town. I now live about 30 min away. I have bee there a few time since the storm. It is very heartbreaking to see all of my old stomping grounds flattened. But the people of Washington are tough and will pull through. One thing I did notice is most of the people were laughing and in good spirits!
