Hurricane prep
Left out Tuesday and headed to my fathers place in Sneads Ferry NC, Picked up around the yard, burned off a buch of trash, got all my tackle out of the house and loaded up the McKee. Went thru the house, grabed anything that I considered important, emtpied the fridge and freezer. My father showed up Wednesday morning. I loaded the sailboats on one trailer and got them secured for the trip back to Raleigh. Left out about noon and headed back to Goose Creek SC(Charleston). Stopped off in Lumberton and bought a bunch of bottled water. Made it back before dark, They had I26 reversed all lanes so I came in the back way. Spent the day securing the shop, fired up the generators,made my last pass thru Walmart and Lowes. We're riding this one out. Doesnt seem to be as bad as expected, but you never know how its going to go, I think the weather reporters ust throw spagaitti at a map and call it a track.
Ferm and Vic?(and all other V guys in Fla) How ya'll getting along down there?

Hopefully bradford is prepared as it looks like its gonna be nadty his way come Saturday morning. Forecasting 7-11' of storm surge, and he will have weakened, but hes still forecasted to be a cat 2 or 3 and make landfall in that area.

Bradford will just tie all his project boats together and ride it out like an ark. They have some big swing tides in that area anyway, hope it comes thru on the low.

Praying for all you Southern brothers that you come thru this unscathed. Watching the storm closely on the Weather Channel, CNN and a bunch of other TV stations. The poor bastards in Haiti got hammered.. large loss of life. :( Keep your heads down guys. We want to talk with you not about you.

Been tracking that storm all last night. Saw several reports from Charleston, knew you were right in the thick of it. Hang in there Dave. If you need anything shout. We'll hear you.

doing pretty good right now. Lost power aaround 11 am, finally got off my *** and fired up teh generator this afternoon, got it running thru the dryer plug to power the house(yes, the main breaker is off). Had one of my pears split and fall over my shed. Cut it up this afternoon. Overall not too bad, could have been a whole lot worse. Ferm? how did you make out? Anyone heard from Vic? Bradford ever check in?
