Inbound Storms

It was nice to feel good from the start this morning instead of yesterdays YUK feeling. So we got breakfast eaten and ready for the walk. And it was nice weather. Here is what we had to put up with all day today. WOW.

That is nice isn't it.

On along the trail it loops around a nice slough you have seen many times in this blog. Only today a diligent kayaker was fishing on the calm water and looking like he was having fun so we watched him for a bit,

The rest of the 2+ miles were very pleasant walking and even a couple of nice folks to talk with for a few minutes each.

After getting showered and settled with a beverage after the walk we got to checking the hurricane progress out in the Gulf of Mexico. As it turns out the storm has turned toward Rockport Tx on the coast where we go frequently. And I was surprised to see the storm Beryl getting aligned to come right through the Tennessee valley looking for us next week. It seems that the OFM has been a hurricane magnet all his life. Even in my tour of Viet Nam they pulled us out of the jungle one time for a week to let a typhoon (hurricane) come through.

So we spent a good bit of this day plotting our defense against the incoming storm. The least undesirable part is that the storm should be just strong rain storms by the time it gets to us up here in way north Alabama. So tomorrow is re-stock groceries day before all the rain storms hit.

Have some fun and be nice to each other. GOOD NIGHT.
