Uninvited Guest for Labor Day


Well we have been watching the weather channel over the past few days. Looks like we may have an uninvited guest to our Labor Day holiday. His name is Gustav. He's a tropical storm but may grow into a hurricane in the next day or two. He's near Jamaica and could be in the Gulf by the weekend.
The panic mode as already kicked in. Some of the shelves at the stores are empty. We still have several days to prepare so things should be restocked before the storm hits. Unfortunately, some who live in that panic mode tend to take more than they need and those of us who wait until the last minute are left with the AAA batteries - the ones that work the remote, not that the cable will be on once the wind picks up. Anyway, we've decided to ride this one out. Good luck to those who are getting the heck out of Dodge. Drive safe. Have patience in the traffic. Enjoy your "vacation". We'll hold down the fort here at home.
