Angry Ivan is here !

I was supposed to be out buying my '02 F150 Supercrew today but now I'm boarded up in my house waiting for Hurricane Ivan to hit. We have 30-40 mph winds already and the worst is still to come. Keep your fingers crossed for all of us here in Pensacola,Fl. Take care.

Yes, we're here for the duration, about half a mile from the water. Winds are up to 50-60 mph now and getting stronger. Power has gone out and came back several times so far. This will probably be my last post until the storm passes.

Take care everyone....

Even though Ivan is a beast and I know he's gonna tear up the southern states, I still marvel at the satellite pictures at nasa.gov They're pretty sweet. I hear there's already been one death confirmed b/c of a tornado. -Bill
