I'm checking my list.

PS Hopefully it will go to the South but a lot of forecast programs have it running right up the East Coast.

I hadn't heard about this! I feel like I've been living in a cave. Hope the cane blows out to sea. Maybe I'd better check the weather for New England too!

Mike that sounds like my kind of weekend!

Probably should not bring this up; but Sunday, I saw an MG Midget do a rollover. I thought that was almost impossible being soooo low to the ground. He had a rollbar and wasn't hurt at all but it messed up a beautiful race car. Otherwise, I saw some super road racing.

The S goes in Saturday to have the clutch fluid replaced. The rest of the day will be spent cleaning the car for the next trip on Labor Day Weekend.

Someday we should stay home!

Getting ready for Isaac. Hopefully the storm will go elsewhere but right now we are in the center of the cone so we have to start preparing.

I have my list of todo's ready. If we have to get out we're going to look like a wagon train.

Which side you think it will go up or do you think it will split the middle? Not to many ways to run on this one.

Today is start the generator day.

I'm getting back to work on finishing the remodel of my kitchen. I hope to finally get to take a look at the new VW Beetle, along with the Mini Cooper S, this weekend. I wasn't able to get around to it before vacation.

I think right now you're more likely to get the direct hit than us on the east coast. But even so, the weather on the east coast will be bad since it will be the dirty part of the storm. I'll be servicing my generator and trying to start it this weekend. Haven't used it since Wilma.
