The impending hurricane is on track to hit Myrtle Beach along the Grand Strand and we are getting ready.  Paul has just finished pulling in all the outdoor furniture, the barbeque, and the portable kitchen.  My garage is full.  Our neighbor graciously allowed us to store our car in her garage.  We do not have hurricane shutters for all the windows, but the windows themselves are supposed to be hurricane tough.  We shall see. 

We went to Cosco and bought extra food and water just in case.  Since we live 4 miles from the ocean we do not have to evacuate.  My sympathies go out to all those in New Orleans who were forced to evacuate. It must be a night mare and particularly stressful for children and the elderly. 

Anyway, this 'guest' is not welcome, so I hope she passes us by...
