Weather
We're on the Oregon coast and its a little windy. We're keeping our awnings in. But, this is nothing compared to what is going to hit Florida in another day. Hurricane Frances is HUGE! We lived in Florida for over 20 year and I know we never saw anything like this ... not even Andrew in '92. Check out weather.com for the latest.
I'm so glad we're not there and don't own a house there now. And, I'm so worried about all our family and friends who are there. Many of them have been thinking about evacuating - but - where do you go? Unless this turns north real soon now, it's going to cover the whole state.
I loved the story from Lynne during the last hurricane - they took refuge in a bar that declared itself a 'hurricane shelter'. And, had a special on hurricane drinks! Here's the bar we took refuge in last night:
Today we gave our Wi-Fi seminar to the staff here at Turtle Rock (I didn't take any photos .. oh no!) It was very well received. We were told that the amount of information was 'just right'. we try to give solid information about how all this works without overwhelming them with technical details. We'll do some more tomorrow.
We're thinking about all of you in Florida! We love you!
