Hey Gang, I thought I'd report in from the NC coast with some pics of Hurricane Earl. We rode out the storm last night, and all is well; Earl didn't come inland, so the wind/rain was minimal. These pics were made last evening prior to sunset. The eye of the storm was parallel with us about midnight, but as you can see the waves were pretty high prior to dark-thirty. There was a mandatory evacuation to leave the island starting at 5:00pm, and the bridges were closed at that time. There was also an 8:00 curfew. We were not on the Outer Banks, but close, My sister told me only idiots and hard core MD folks would go to the coast prior to a hurricane! LOL
This morning we hit the beach to MD shortly after 8:00am to find 5 others doing the same thing. I'll post my findings if I'm able to get back online later tonight. There's really nothing to write home about yet, but I have high hopes. I'm in the parking lot of a cyber cafe, so my connection is not very good.
Hopefully we'll find some good stuff before having to head back home after Labor Day. Breezie
