anticipating a hurricane

Gas lines in Vero Beach

No gas in Vero Beach

Businesses boarded up in downtown Vero

I think it was Carly Simon who sang, "anticipation, is making me wait..." 

Sidebar... By the way, did you know that Carly Simon began her singing career with her sister Lucy?  They were known as the Simon Sisters.  Lucy got married and went on to a life.  Carly became a superstar.  Life has it's paths and everyone has a journey.  You are entitled to your journey.

Anticipation.  The hardest part of a hurricane is waiting anxiously to see what the storm is going to do.  If you are from the Midwest, you know that a tornado warning lasts for 30 minutes to an hour.  Waiting for a hurricane is like a week long tornado watch.  Everyone prepares and worries.  All of your friends call you and text you.

Well at present, it looks like Hurricane Dorian will stay mostly off of the coast of Florida.  Good for us, bad for the Carolinas.  Cathy and I went down to Ft. Lauderdale and have a hotel there for a few days.  We will see what happens.

As always, we humans anticipate and worry, and often make a thing bigger than it should be.  It will all work out.  Thanks for your prayers and well wishes.

It's a beautiful day in God's world be sure to see the good.
