Just got word from the rental office here that pretty much everything is shutting down here at 5 in order to let people get home. By 7 we should be rocking. It's still a Tropical Storm but is expected to hit Category 1 strength by the time it hits land. At this time they are predicting the center of the storm to hit about 60 miles north, but it's shifting west so we might be in for a bumpy night. We have plenty of food, water, a flashlight and even some candles that the rental office handed us and I don't feel at this time that we are in any immediate danger. With 2 kids, if I thought we were, we would have left already. My best friend's family (Andrea who is with me) used to own a condo where were staying and it survived Hugo back years ago so I definitely feel safe. We are sitting here out on the porch, watching the trees sway and admiring the white caps on the water, and in a way, this sort of excites me. I've never been part of something like this.
I'll try to post more tomorrow...will update the rest of the days from the trip either tomorrow from our hotel on the road, or at home.
If there is anyone else out there that reads this that are in the affected areas, I hope you are able to stay safe too.

Good luck! It can be kinda fun to go through one.
I hope you have made it okay. I wonder about all the people I know and the people I have meet here in this world! It makes me glad to be soooo landlocked. I gave you a tag. by the way. Sorry. It feels rude to ignore a tag and to tag.
