better news

So as I headed to bed last night, it appears that hurricane Dorian is heading out to sea.  The farther it moves from the coast, the better for us.

In 2016, hurricane Matthew came through, Cat 3 and 30 miles off shore.  Still the winds at our house were 75 mph.  If Dorian performs in a similar fashion, at least we will know what to expect as we have been through such storms before.

The town is locked down.  Our house is locked down.

At 11:45am yesterday,  I was headed to Walmart.  The parking lot was packed.  We parked way out there.  As we walked toward the store, I noticed that three policemen were blocking each entrance.  No one allowed in after 11:45.  Many people argued, but the police were not budging.  Walmart was closing.

Grocery store, Target, Walmart, Walgreens, Shell station, all closed at noon.

We hope that the bulk of the storm will remain off shore. 
Will bring you up to speed later today.

Thanks for your prayers and positive messages.
