Go over the causway, take your first right on s. riverside, and Im three blocks down on the intercoastal at 8th ave. Im actually right under the d, in riverside. Weather station right down at the beach. Im less than a 1/4 of a mile from him, so if you catch the weather station, youll see what Im seeing.
Speaking to what Ann said. I happen to have met a friend for dinner in Lake City last night. It was as awing as disney world. So help me, there were 500 trucks lined up at least. They were busing the drivers to hotels. The turnpike was loaded with them. There is alot of prior planning that goes it to this. I still cant believe all those vehicles. Ann knows. Amazing spirit.
Hetty, glad your OK, to tired to rail on the hype, but its a problem.
Off to see if I can get Mother to bed, at least for a few hours.
Be back soon, or when electricity is back if we loose it.
I had my husband bring the ladder in and put it by the door, Im not so worried about the wind, Im headed to the roof if the river and the ocean decide to kiss tho. I doesnt look like that will be the case, altho from daytona, and especially jacksonville, they have themselves a major surge issue.
Courage is fear thats said its prayers. That done, on to just hunkering down.
