AS always, thanks for the pings and running the thread. Have not posted much; don't have anything to say.

Hoping she speeds across Fla and sets out to sea

Matthew just called again. He is with friends on N. Roosevelt and said that the water is almost up to hip deep and getting deeper. Tried to get my brother the Sheriff on his cell and couldn't get him.

Finally dragged my rearend out of bed. Very brief power outage a little while ago but I don't anticipate anything major happening up here.

Cold front made it through. Very, very weird to be watching a hurricane go by and it's cold outside.

Thanks, NN. A couple of my friends from The Hobbit Hole are in Miami.
