Most of the attention went to Tacloban city on the eastern side of Leyte, most other areas were forgotten, just outside of Tacloban lies the small town of Palo Leyte, the town where the Americans landed to liberate the islands from the Japan, everything across the island was pounded hard, when I stepped off the ferry from Cebu in Ormoc I couldn"t believe the damage, they have been bringing supplies to the port in Ormoc and then by truck to Tacloban, they had 2 of those trucks in a big fatal accident a few days ago, on the way into Ormoc, the trucks were still there tonight when I went for a walk to take pictures, one is on its side with an SUV crushed in front against a building.
This damage will take years to fix, some areas will be without power for months, having trouble getting poles and transformers, my wife grew up here and are here on a scheduled "vacation" that turned into work for me, this is a beautiful area to visit normally.
There are 2 of the 3 large grocery stores open in town, Gasiano downtown is still closed, Robinsons and Gasiano Riverside are open, but the shelves empty fast as people from north, south, and east have to come here for supplies, no where else to go, I picked up a hotspot so at least I can have Internet access, I am in the country until January, 24, can"t wait to get home, I will be able to buy and cook what I want for a change.
I have to 100% agree with what has been said about donations, normally very little, if anything reaches the people that need help, and then supplies are stolen and sold, I see Red Cross veichle"s driving around every day, but can"t quite figure out what they are actually doing.
You guys take care, for the first time in my life I missed the cold weather, but have to admit as a Minnesota boy I have had enough of the tropical heat.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Part Number Trivia - by Forum Participants. "Replaced by" means the part was superseded. All of my part books date back to 1964 and New Holland have changed some part numbers. They usually put the old Ford part number on the package. I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the ... [Read Article]
