ohh my....you're in Texas. But I'm assuming (since you have a new guitar and all) that you weren't too badly hit by Ike?

no damage to the house, just 1 tree down in the yard and a lot of branches to cut up..............no power for 12 days ( power out from Sept. 13 - 25th) but it's looking up now!!!!!!!!!!!
