4x4abc Date registered: Apr 2006 Location: La Paz, Baja California, Mexico Vehicle(s): 02 G500 | Re: Harald - Hurricane in Cabo thank you guys for all your help so far I am humbled by those fast initiatives and I am embarrassed to admit that I needed help please don't start another war - we have enough of those already I am deeply saddened to see that we now have hurricane damage on the G forums I had no communication in the direct aftermath of the hurricane and was not involved in any of the fund raisers therefore there is no "approved" or "official" the people collecting money are in control of those funds trust them if you are comfortable with them however, if you like a different avenue, I'll be happy to give you my personal information in case you want help Karl and I to dig out of this mess for paypal: Use my email harald.pietschmann@gmail.com for Wells Fargo: Acc. 2450902461 - Routing 121042882 when everything is back in place we (Karl and I) would like to invite all of you to spend some time for free here in La Paz not all at once of course - don't have that many beds and no, you don't need to donate in order to join in paradise G friends sometimes need to get together - eat, drink, talk, laugh we'll arrange for some cool offroading and camping - definitely putting Karl's boat in the water Karl and I are hard at work to do what needs to be done 300+ ft of walls are completely gone plus 1,000 electrical and mechanical issues (welding.jpg) Attachments ---------------- welding.jpg (351KB - 0 downloads) | ||

Sorry to read your hurricane damage leads to some bizarre reactions in the donation topic on CGW. Good to read you're putting some things in perspective, hope the ones concerned come to their senses. All the best and greetings from the Netherlands, Bram p.s. did your G survive the hurricane without major damage? | ||
