Well crap! It has been 7 years since Hurricane Katrina and 8 years since Hurricane Ivan,which pounded us. I was hoping to be lucky again this year, but NO!! We have Hurricane Isaac heading right at us! Time to batten down the fort. It is going to huff and puff and Try to blow my house down!
Hang on to your butts people. We are in for a bumpy ride! 
I am doing the usual. Filling up the autos with gas, stocking up on non-perishables, filling all the water containers and bringing in all of the things that could blow away.
I will know better what is coming by tomorrow, but still have to prepare for the worst. It looks like I am on the wrong side of this one. The northeast is usually the worst part of the hurricane as the winds wrap around the eye. Hello, that looks like me! Once it moves through the Keys and enters the Gulf of Mexico, it will suck up the hot water and strengthen.
Alert!!
To everyone! I will probably be without power for some time. Don’t know how long. My posts will be delayed and things that I have scheduled may be late getting posted. I will be emailing as many as I can about scheduled events being delayed.
Time to get busy again. I will be posting until the power goes! Wish me luck!
YIKES!
