Tango - are you glued to your set biting your nails? We just had a bunch of rain, but I guess the winds are still a little south.

The trees outside have an evil grin.

I've never been in the eye of a hurricane before - this could be one of those things I can bore the grandkids with.

If I survive.

Run!!!

It is still still here. Now they say it might go a bit north of here. The kid in me wants an adventure. The dad and homeowner in me wants it to turn around.

My ex recently moved from Bradenton to Port St. Lucie. My girls are there with him now. They've battened down the hatches in preparation for high winds. The girls were nervous. Maybe after this, they'll stop asking me to move to Florida.

b>humanpackmule - Too funny! LMAO.
Do you have articles to go with it? Actually, they're not needed. I think we've all heard Tango's feelings on each subject. You must have been taking notes.

bitpusher - That's a wonderful picture. I didn't know you were in Hawaii, while I was there.

Thanks, Roam. I figured they were ok in Port St Lucie, I was just hoping it might shake 'em up enough to beat the Florida bug out of 'em. LOL



Hey! I want to subscribe to that Sassy magazine! I wonder if the article mentions anything about how TT's Glam Girl spent time in the penalty box for high sticking her trek'n pole and it was all over a package of Ramen noodles, no less!!


Hiya Tango! Hope to see you on TT's fantasy hockey league again this year. :)

FloridaToday.com reports:

"Recent track has eye of Hurricane Charley passing over Orlando."

Nothing significant in Melbourne. Since Orlando is NW of Melbourne, it appears that we are safe. So I can probably go home in a little while. Good luck you Orlando folks and others in the track..
