Waiting for the Storm

Went for a long run this morning--8 miles!--and since then Sally and I have spent the day getting the house ready for the hurricane.  So far, the track of the storm has been all over the place, but when I looked this morning I was basically horrified to see that the projected eye of the storm was gonna go right through my neighborhood!  Yikes!!!  Things are looking a little better now in that the storm seems to have veered maybe thirty miles to the east, and it seems to have weakened a bit as well, but still... here we are, sort of waiting for the worst.

If you're curious, here's the National Weather Service's Hurricane Tracker.  I find it sort of addictive, but then again, I'm right in the path of the storm.
