Its noon: she's still sitting offshore, has built herself up to a Category 2 and is making us all quite anxious as she has moved northward, following the coastline.The radio station I usually listen to has gone MIA - so I've got on a Hispanic station. They have Hispanic storm watchers everywhere!! Fernando is downtown talking about a funnel cloud as we speak --all giving us the low-down on Dolly, in English. Along with rain and wind,there have been some road closures, flooding, power outages and stalled vehicle/accidents, but Carlos and Ramos are doing a great job of reporting the latest! The mariachi filled music keeps you happy and upbeat! Oh - thanks to Blue's driver, I've got plenty of merlot on hand should nerves require it tonight, and batteries for my radio so I don't lose track of my new buds Carlos and Ramos. Onward we go...Dolly, por favor deje Texas!
Your attitude is fantastic! Viva la Tejas!
ReplyDeleteDid JP make it in?
Hang in there. If you have to evacuate, remember your corkscrew. People always forget the corkscrew, rendering their bottles of solace useless!
ReplyDeleteImprovement on the idea - buy extra corkscrews and keep one in the glovebox (do they still call them gloveboxes; when is the last time anybody put gloves in one?) of each vehicle. Hurricanes, evacuations, sporting events, skinny dipping - you never know when it might come in handy. Get the ones with a bottle opener for multi-purpose emergencies.
