10 PM Update - The end of a long day.

10pm radar.... Purple X maks our location.

Well we got the boat ready for tonight. We did the final preprations and we're set.

Tom adding extra lines to ours

Tom was out helping them with all the boats here, they went and checked every boat in here tonight to make sure it was ready for the storm.

Its so humid outside that its almost unbearable. But about 9ish it started to cool down and we have a nice breeze. What the breeze will be like later tonight is hard to tell. But we were all at the store chatting and visiting. Most people came yesterday or today to secure their boats, the marina down the street made everyone move, so they moved them in here or they are tied up near an island. There are a bunch of guys staying on a boat at an island. They got their beer and ice and they're ready for it. For me? I'm not that brave.

While I was standing out there talking, I managed to get bit by stupid Fire Ants... Ok these little critters rank right up there with yellow flies. I thought that they were ms-key-toes biting, till I came in the boat and noticed that they were ants. I hate the bugs around here....

But we're settled in for the night...

Our day started off at 8am when we dropped the dog at at Doggy Daycamp. Tom took her in.

I picked her up, she was pissed that her daddy didn't pick her up, this is how she rode home the whole way. She never looked at me once.....

She thinks she hurted my feelings, but little does she know, I really don't care......

On the way home we hit rain, roads in town started to flood, and the storm didn't even make it here yet.... Glad we don't have to go out tomorrow.

Of Course I got stuck at the bridge with so many boats moving around, the bridge has been busy.


Notice how yucky the sky looked.. Now at 10pm its nice and clear with just a few rain band clouds there.....

Well since its still nice out, I'm going up on deck for awhile. There is still allot of people out moving around.
