Yes, we are preparing for Issac. We’ve been through this routine before — in 2004 with numerous storms, and we’ve already had a couple near misses here.
Dave, the kids and I took care of a lot of stuff last evening (after a wonderful afternoon boating with our friends the Scotts), to include burning the enormous pile of palm fronds and branches that had been sitting much of the summer in a corner of our backyard.
Today I will be attempting a trip to my local Walmart just for some groceries. I’ll toss our 10 gallon gas can into the car just in case. Although Facebook friends are saying that only premium gas is left in our community.
The kids don’t really know what to expect. The 2004 storms impacted us right around Jacob’s 2nd birthday, and I was pregnant with Timmy at the time. For Hurricane Jeanne, while I was evacuated with my Air Force unit, Dave stayed home with Jacob and Howie…and Jacob slept through the whole thing. Dave says he doesn’t wish staying home in a Category 3 storm on anyone!
