Vacation Interruptus, or not

We packed up last night, planning on bugging out this morning. They put us under a tropical storm warning and hurricane watch at 5 PM last night. Given the events of recent weeks, I thought for sure the local officials would be trigger happy on the evacuation call. They did evacuate the 4 wheel drive area just a couple of miles to the north of us.

Alas, when the dogs woke us at 630 AM this morning, it was sunny and calm. It's downright beautiful outside.

So we are going to the beach, not home. The northern edge of the storm is still over 100 miles to the south of us, traveling 6 mph, and the storm jogged east at 8 AM. We may bug out later today if the situation warrants.

It is damn hard to relax when you have to watch the weather so closely though.
