That one looks good.

The Hurricane sure didn't slow you down any. I've got some good seeing
when I'm not ducking thunderstorms. Each night I get an hour or so then
they move in and send me ducking for cover with winds up to 70 mph.
Spent the day yesterday cleaning trees out of my one km round out to a
township road. That was then blocked by more trees. They cleared them
today so I am now free again but nasty ones are 90 miles west and headed
right for me so here we go again.

I might get more than an hour in tonight however.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".
