20-AUG-2008

August 20, 2008

I want to thank all of you who have checked-in with us and expressed concern about the tropical storm. So far we are doing quite well.

The weather stalled out just south of us and is crawling slowly up the east coast. The storm, called Fay, dumped record amounts of rain on a county to our south. We still don't know how wide spread the flooding will be there. Fay is to arrive here tomorrow. So far it has been only wet but not too wild.

Jill and I have food, water and plenty of good music and wine... If the power goes out we will use Shibumi's generator to produce electricity. We think we are ready... but Fay will let us know, tomorrow, just how ready we are.

Thanks again for all of your well wishes.

Hi Dave,
Thank you for this message. I love this picture but I hate that you guys are getting pelted with awful weather. Will be looking forward to your updates.
