Willie I love you like a brother but you're weired! ;-) On the other hand I was born a Scotch drinking Presbyterian so it just comes naturally to me.
All jokes aside do not take this lightly. I've seen very bright newcomers to the area go into a storm unprepared.
Ok - normally I'm a recluse, but we could have a slumber party at my house this weekend........... ! lol
"weired"
Does that go on the FReeper spelling list? :-)
Thank-you.
Your tips HAVE been very helpful...
I may have to stock-up on some foodstuffs,
but I'm due to go grocery shopping Wednesday/Thursday anyway.
We'll know better how this storm is tracking then.
I'm pretty well stocked on all the other emergency items (propane, first aid, ammo, batteries, etc. etc.) I even have a top-notch water filter with my camping gear that can supplement our needs if the water stored in jugs/sinks/bathtub runs out.
The house is solid, but I also have the option of holing up with either of my two brothers who also live in the area. And I'm the one who is most likely to talk THEM into getting in the car and getting the heck out of here if things start looking serious. I don't believe in taking chances that I don't have to.
