Back Home Safe

[[AK]Pops Murphy]

So Mom & I and my parents (who live near us) hitch up the R.V., mandatory evacuation you know, and head to safety in Kissimmee (Orlando). About 3 in the afternoon Charley decides to head northeast, right towards where we are staying. Course all the hotels/motels are booked solid with all the people headed east from Tampa Bay, where Charley was supposed to go in the first place. Well to make a long story short, I can now say that I have been through the eye of a Category 2 hurricane in an R.V. and lived to talk about it. Needless to say I don't want to have to do it again. But we are all safe and sound back home, ready for more Battlefield and comradery. Pops

Glad to have you safe and sound Pops...CNN was indicating that it was a category 4 storm when it hit Orlando though? Were you further to the north?

Glad to hear you and yours made it through safely Pops.

[Richie]

I'm glad to see that you're okay, Pops.

Glad to see you made it through okay, Pops. I am in Sarasota now. This place dodged the bullet. It would have been hammered if Charley hit Tampa Bay. Looks really bad in Charlotte and Arcadia though.

Good to hear, Pops!

Glad everyone here seems to have come through Charley OK.

You know, it occurred to me that with a male name beginning with C needed to follow Bonnie, I would have found it appropriately ironic if this storm had been named Clyde. Guess that's why I'm not in charge of naming them.

Glad to hear everyone is safe.
