Shaun it may had to something to do with Bud's long weekend. Before the trip he posted something about the Adult Liquid Refreshment list. May still be reeling from the effects.
Are you ready for the Big Blow of Flo?

i aint skeered of it... dont think its going to die down as fas as theyre predicting after hitting land though... already moved the bigger trailer to below the hill to block some of the wind.. with the nose pointed into the wind.. threw the loose stuff into the trailer along with the shed... brought the deck chairs in and the little trailers under the back deck... tractors behind the house so that should protect it there too...

ive slept through a cat 3 before and learned to drive during another hurricane (family was sick with the flu and i was the only healthy one so i was the one who got sent to the store)... theyre nothing but a bunch of wind and rain... will make the grass grow and maybe knock the power out for a little bit...

Looking like it's going to come straight for us, then duck south. At one point I was going to be on the northern part of the eye wall.

I’m out in Nashville on a ‘business trip’ but plan on driving back on Friday. May be the earliest I can get away from here. Means I’ll miss most of the weather.

Everyone stay safe.

Benz are you still in Nashville or headed home?
I realize most may not see this until sometime after the storm.
Thoughts and prayers to everyone during the storm.
Be safe.

Just walked in the door not 10 minutes ago. Stopped off in Virginia to pick up supplies, as the word I was hearing had everything here being sold out. Now to sleep in my own bed.

Have to say, the little F150 was solid and fine for the 1k plus miles I have thrown on it this week.
