Here comes the Storm

We have a tropical storm coming, Fay. We are all pretty calm at my house, we have been through this so many times we all know that drill. Stock up on the basics, put up the shutters and hunker down and wait. We sat at my friends through Charlie and the way the winds were hitting we were able to go out on her lanai and watch it a little and it was really cool. I know people were hurt and a lot of people lost everything and that was so terrible but watching the storm and seeing the winds whip and seeing how little we can actually control was magnificent. Anyhow we are waiting to see what it does and preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. They have already canceled school for tomorrow (the 2nd day LOL), so we will charge the games boys and fill the tubs with bath water (to flush the toilet with). Say a prayer for SW FL tonight. Here is a link for the latest, as of 2:00pm, http://www.weather.com/maps/geography/southeastus/southeastuscurrentweather_large.html
