Major shoutout and kudos to Bradford! Thanks to him the PD is now 15 miles inland and sitting on his trailer. He's the man!

Thank you to everyone else who offered. I had mixed feelings about leaving it in the water, especially when the state called for a "mandatory" evacuation beginning tomorrow. I'm pretty sure that me taking her out of the water caused the forecast track to move northward away from here as soon as I made the call.

Best wishes for everyone in the path of this storm. May we all come out of it safe and sound.

I went up to Sneads Ferry yesterday, battened every thing down, cut the power off. Left a 6 pack of miller light in the fridge and mowed the grass in defiance

Cfelton, Randleman, Garage NC, and all others in the path be safe and keep your wits about you.

We're praying for y'all.

I really appreciate Bradford for loaning PD the trailer (and all the other guys who offered up). I actually did put the old V on blocks last Sunday so I could get the trailer to PD, but between obligations and Flo trying to fake us out by looking like she was going north, we decided to wait until after the storm.

Now the "experts" have decided that Flo will go south (although she seems to be trucking NW at 16 mph pretty steady) I was feeling uneasy thinking of the Pipe Dream falling victim.

Anyway, it has all worked out...thanks guys.

I thank you ALL! And I hope and pray that everyone in harm's way will get through this without loss of life or property.
