Nuther UPDATE! Hurricane Rick's a-comin!

We held hands on line with BFF's on Kauai when Iniki hit them in the 90's.

Fortunately, she has been advising us for the last 2 days and watching our weather.

We had a LOVELY paddle this morning, no swim due to the half inch of rain the last two nights, we try to avoid heavy potential bacterial dumps.

We have spent the day battening down the hatches so to speak. Everything, as far as we can tell, is now either inside or grouped together in corners so they don't fly around, especially through windows. We realize that we will likely lose a window or two and have shoes and gloves ready.

We have also moved a few things, think dog food/treats and liquor, into our secure apartment so that if we have to hide out, we can. Oh yeah, food and ice too!

Hopefully the world is prepared, weather permitting we will go to breakfast tomorrow morning and then finish breaking down our outside kitchen.

It will be interesting, hopefully others will be as prepared as we hope to think we are.
