Yikes, it's Ike!
Well, there's no denying it now. We're pretty much going to get a direct hit. We have groceries and charcoal and matches and candles and lighter fluid and gasoline and a generator and bottled water and first aid supplies and well, pretty much anything and everything we could think of that might be useful, including oatmeal cream pies. The bathtub is full, our gas tanks are full, we dragged a mattress downstairs in case we need to pull it over us in the bathroom under the staircase, and for now, we just get to sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor. The wind is picking up outside, cloud cover is rollin' in, and Ike is just about 200 miles away from us. I might post some video later once it gets interesting if our power stays on. If not, I'll try to post the video and/or pics later.
