Well it,s lovely and sunny here,and for once low humidity. We have all just finished our reviewing our family hurricane plan. The florida keys have been told to evacuate, but we will not really know even it's rough path until it leaves Cuba.
I really hope it does not hit us,but the kids are quite excited !!!!
My husbands dressing room is oursafe room as it is the only room with no windows.We have to have 2 plans, one if it is 3 or below we stay.So water, tinned food and can openers, pet food first aid kit, mine and sons meds.Battery radio, torches, batteries the list goes on.Then plan 2 is the evacuation one, which means 5 people 2 cats and 3 dogs to pack into the suv plus all the food, in case we find nowhere to stay, and all important documents in ziploc bags.
As I type the kids are running around cleaning the garage so we can get all the lanai furniture in .Personally I think they are pleased because they know if it hits that means more time off school. !!!!!
Oh wel back to see if the weather has updated yet.Then go and fill the cars, before the mad rush starts.

Have just been thinking as I mentally reviewing our plans. Should we stay and category 3 is our cutoff, what do we do about toilet facilities ????
Needless to say my husbands dressing room does not have a toilet in it. Yuk very nasty thoughts spring to mind.
But evacuating with 3 kids, 3 dogs and 2 cats does not sound much fun either. !!!!

Wow Optom that sounds like quite a scary situation to be in. Please keep us posted if you can as to how you are doing. Hopefully the storm will head away from you. I will be thinking about you as I see all of this on TV. Good luck to you, your family, and your pets.

I heard about Jack Weil passing away this morning on "Sunday Morning." It seemed strange to hear since I have been to his shop in Denver and I believe he was there. I think I even have a picture of him.
