Landie Bea and Wayne - Update

Good Morning to all -

If there is anyone on this list that doesn't
know, Ladie Bea & Wayne's house has burned. And so sorry for the
delay in passing along info. As luck would have it, Wednesday was
Veteran's day, and the fire marshall and insurance people were all
off work so nothing happened that day. They didn't get to meet with
anyone until Thursday. Very frustrating.

First of all, they both are overwhelmed by the kindness, concern,
love and prayers expressed by all of you in this unbelievable
situation. As much as they would like to see each and everyone of
you, they are still spending much of their day with insurance
people. I'm going to pass along everything I know, if only to
alleviate the burden of them having to repeat the story a hundred times.

As you know, the house burned on Tuesday night. Two different
neighbors had seen the smoke and called 911. We were at dinner and
all headed home around 9:30. They came over the hill to the house to
find 6 fire trucks filling the street in front of their house. First
thought was that there must have been a terrible accident. When they
realized what was happening, they had to get the dogs. The fireman
was not going to let them near the house, and as LB argued with him,
Wayne snuck down the service drive on the side, got a fireman in the
driveway, and took him to the back where the dogs were. The fireman
busted down the door, Wayne called the dogs and, thankfully, they
came to him.

We stood in the street until about midnight, when they then let us go
down and look, and OMG. The main room, kitchen and west side
bedrooms are pretty much destroyed. The curvy hall, their bedroom
and the rooms on the east side of the house were not touched by the
fire but everything, and I mean everything, all the way down to the
washcloths in the cabinets are charred with smoke damage. A
restoration company was there first thing Wednesday morning and
believe that a good bit of stuff in the rooms outside of the fire
damaged areas are savageable.

The fire marshall has determined that the fire was electrical and
that it started on that little side porch behind the guest bedroom on
the southwest corner of the house. All the artwork in the fire
damage areas is destroyed. The insurance people have determined this
as a major structural damage (duh) and now have three different teams
assessing the damage, which will take more time. No one can touch
anything in the house until everything is catalogued and assessed so
there is nothing anyone can do except wait. When the time comes for
help, I can assure you the call will go out and you can jump right in.

If you don't mind, continue to use me as a contact person. Feel free
to call me any time - 830.3756 and i'll tell you anything I know.
Their computers are probably destroyed so they have no access to
email but we're working on getting something set up soon. If you see
that I don't have someone on this list, please forward.

Again, thank you for everything, especially your prayers. I'll
continue to update as I know more.

Susan

Regular Friday lunch at Fire Restaurant

The regular Friday posse crowd enjoying lunch at Fire Restaurant. The cool autumn weather, the sun on your face, the camaraderie of friends, and great food - does it get any better?


David bellied up to the bar for a scotch taste-testing. And a one, and a two ... Most taste-testings are a mere half ounce or so ... but David has the master pour with which to determine the finer fermentation!

Animore 2009

The posse showed their support at the first annual Animore charity event for the Alaqua Animal Refuge. The event was held at Bentley's On the Bay.

Wayne gives the guest of honor a pat. This black-mouth cur puppy was just adopted from Alaqua the day before and his proud papa brought him to the party!

Several of the attendees dressed the part, complete in animal prints!

And some just wore their usual party gear. Regardless of the chosen outfit, everyone had a great time and much needed funds were raised to support Alaqua Animal Refuge!

Interview w/The Queen of the Posse

Recently 30A TV was granted a rare interview with the 'Queen' of the 30-A Posse. Take a look at this rare occurrence - most likely it will not be repeated. She tells all about us & our non-secret society. She thinks there is no such thing as bad publicity or TOO much. You know, Debbie Wheeler gets reprimanded for mentioning us so often. So take a look!!

David Seering sings to an overflow crowd at Grand Boulevard during the "Farewell to Summer" concert Labor Day weekend. Despite the drizzle, David made the crowd sizzle to the tunes of Sinatra and Broadway.

September Howl @ the Moon!


The 30a Posse was joined at Howl @ the Moon by the folks from 30atelevision.com. Apparently the chance of 30 seconds of fame on TV spurred one of the largest groups ever to make their way to Grayton Beach for fun, feasting, festivities, and a fabulous sunset and moonrise!
The 30atelevision.com crew, Paul, Judy, and Julie (from the left) were joined by Jenny and Tim to make sure the recorded the events would pass the rigorous censorship requirements for local programming.
Early birds set the stage for a great Howl.

The beach begins to fill with merry revelers.

Tall Tom and Susan are heading into the crowd!

Delicious concoctions of liquid libations were enjoyed by all!

Three beauties grace the beach, helping while away the hours till moonrise.

For once Wayne is able to enjoy the party without having to take all the pictures. Joe seems a bit skeptical of the new photographer!

Steve wins the whitest teeth award, but Tom has the brightest shirt!

It looks like Redd has pulled together a quartet for "howl" practice!

Christi makes a spectacular entrance, fresh from her swim ... just in time to Howl at the moon!The moon finally broke free from the clouds to a resounding chorus of howls.

August Howl @ the Moon

Karen and PJ brighten up a dull, rainy evening as "Howl @ the Moon" moves inside yet again.

The damp weather hasn't dampened our spirits as we wait for the moon to rise.

Bright lights and even brighter shirts make sure we won't lose Tom!

Now that we're indoors, we can dress up for the "Howl @ the Moon"!

And yes, there was some howling done ... although we're not sure if the moon ever came out!

July Howl @ the Moon

July's Howl @ the Moon was a bit too wet for our typical beach party. So we took it indoors and had a howling good time.

Joe and Sandy share a snack and some stories.

The indoor "Howl" means we can have real wine glasses - no more plastic!!

Oops - well a few of us still use plastic, even indoors!

The conversation is turning way to serious. Let's get back to partying!

Now this is more like it!
