for the last couple of days it looked like it was going to be incredibly bad for us (even inland here in orlando). the newest models are weakening the storm considerably, and the major concern for most people now is flooding as it looks like we are going to have major rain for the next 48 hours. of course, charlie was supposed to miss us altogether so we are not out of the water yet, but i am feeling a lot more prepared.
this time we have secured a generator to keep the fridge running (no $200 outlay to restock) and we are really ready for this one both in terms of supplies, and in spirit. if i loose power again, i will not be able to post to this webpage, but i will once i get back with power.
i hope that everyone has a wonderful labor day weekend. i know that i am likely to be laboring out in the lawn on monday. -=smiles=-
