Dodge Ball

As most of you know it's hurricane season and close to the peak dates. The tropics have been quite active.

We've managed to dodge Gustav, Fay and Hanna, although we got feeder bands from all three.

Ike on the other hand is one we need to be very concerned with. The cone is changing as he gets closer .. instead of heading straight at SE Florida he's now heading for the Keys (although he can go anywhere within the cone) putting us on the right side of the storm which means the wrong side.

As the weekend gets close that cone will change. I can only hope and pray he stays on a south westerly course and go through or below Cuba leaving Florida alone.

We have our plan ready. Because we are in an RV we will have to evacuate with our animals and valuables. I've made a list of what to take and we will film later today or tomorrow all our stuff for insurance purposes.
